Frequently Asked Questions

You might be surprised to know that video gaming generally uses very little bandwidth. For most modern games you can expect something in the region of 40MB and 150MB with favourites like Fortnite and Call of Duty falling well within this range at 100MB and 80MB respectively.

Of course some things like voice chat for example, which is often used with online, multi-player games will require more bandwidth but it is still not significant in comparison to other things such as video streaming apps which can use up to 3GB an hour.

The simple answer is, no. A typical family home may have ten or more devices all taking up bandwidth. As mentioned, video streaming apps are some the greediest, far surpassing a typical online game.

The higher your broadband’s Mb/s, the more users can download and upload all at the same time at faster speeds.

Our Ultrafast Plus package is ideal for even the busiest homes, with average download speeds of 500Mb/s.

Esports is competitive, organised gaming that has turned online gaming into a spectator sport.

Amateur and professional gamers compete in tournaments for cash prizes, in games such as League of Legends, Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, Overwatch, Dota 2 and Call of Duty.

At Sky, we’re powering Guild, the UK’s fastest growing professional esports team, with our ultra-reliable full fibre broadband technology, offering speeds 13x faster than our standard fibre broadband.
