Riot Games to have eSports arena in Berlin to boost competitions in the EMEA Region

Riot Games is expanding its operations in the EMEA region (Europe, Middle East, and Africa) with plans for the construction of the Riot Games Arena in Adlershof, Berlin. This new facility will not only serve as a venue for live events but also as a broadcast center for professional competitions.

The Riot Games Arena will host prestigious tournaments, including the League of Legends EMEA Championship, the Valorant Champions Tour EMEA, and various other competitive events. The initiative highlights Riot Games' long-term commitment to driving the future of esports in the region, benefiting fans, teams, and players.

Alberto Guerrero, Head of Esports at Riot Games EMEA, emphasized the significance of this new venture, stating:
 

"Creating a venue of this scale is a testament to our long-term commitment to continue developing the future of esports in the EMEA for our fans, teams, and their players, and the facility will set us up for more success in the years to come."

Despite recent reports of Riot Games' League of Legends esports division not turning a profit in August, the Riot Games Arena initiative reflects a solid commitment to the growth and consolidation of the company's presence in the esports landscape, providing fans with an even more engaging and connected experience.
