From 2013 to 2017, RRQ had only one division team, which was Dota 2. Adrian Pauline stated that, in the beginning, the organization was only run as a hobby and side job, and wasn't focused on their business. In 2014, Esports gained popularity growth, Andrian Pauline, who was originally a Product Director at QEON Interactive, resigned from the office and shifted his focus to the team, since then RRQ started to focus on their businesses. In 2017, RRQ had recruited another three new esports divisions, the new divisions are RRQ Endeavour in Point Blank, RRQ2 in Mobile Legends, and one division team in PUBG that were relatively short serving period.[3][2] At the end of 2019, Adrian Pauline decided to move RRQ Endeavor to the Call of Duty Mobile division from Point Blank.[3]
