Great news for fans of eSports<\/em>: Vodafone Giants<\/a> has recently opened a new facility in Malaga – a pioneering and innovative eSports<\/em> centre that will be a benchmark in Spain and southern Europe. “Home of Giants” will be a meeting place for players as well as a venue for professional competitions to be held.

The Good Game Group<\/a>, which owns Vodafone Giants, has invested more than one million euros in the new 1,000-square-metre facility at Calle Par\u00eds 77.

In addition, the new “Home of Giants” includes office spaces, training rooms, a recording studio, a cafeteria, a restaurant and a shop. The latter has been open to the public since mid-June, both for buying and collecting products purchased through the Giants’ online shop.<\/p>\n
