True Gamers, a leading gaming lounge operator, has revealed ambitious plans to establish Abu Dhabi’s first-ever dedicated esports destination, poised to revolutionize the industry.

Envisioned as a groundbreaking project, the “esports Island” will encompass various zones tailored to gaming competitions, training facilities, and athlete accommodations, marking a significant milestone in global esports infrastructure.

Vlad Belyanin, co-founder of True Gamers, disclosed that the proposed site for the monumental project is situated between the Al Bandar and Al Dana developments in the vibrant Al Raha Beach area.

Strategically located at the nexus of Abu Dhabi’s burgeoning neighborhoods, with Yas Island on one side and the residential developments of Raha Beach on the other, the proposed esports Island promises to be a dynamic addition to the city’s landscape.
