With its array of VR, retro, console, mobile, and Esports games, Pixoul Gaming will not only have the best facilities in the region but will also cater to the entire gaming ecosystem - from game development and education to thrilling immersive experiences, from professional solo, multi-player and team gaming to hosting global gaming festivals. Esports is one of the fastest-growing industries in the MENA region. The UAE's digital gaming sector is estimated to reach US$930 million by 2025, and Pixoul Gaming will highlight Abu Dhabi as the global leader in Esports, broadcasting to millions of fans.

Pixoul will be at the forefront of this digital entertainment revolution by producing a destination that makes gaming accessible and appealing to all. So whether a FIFA fan is looking to connect with fellow gamers, a family looking to enjoy an interactive VR experience, or a group of friends looking to win big at the latest tournament, Pixoul Gaming is the ideal integrated entertainment venue for all ages and abilities.

Commenting, Paul Hamilton, General Manager at Pixoul Gaming, said, "As an integrated, immersive entertainment destination with the region's first Esports Academy, Pixoul has the potential to redefine the modern gaming experience. We believe that everyone should be a gamer today as Esports fosters creativity, encourages problem-solving, and builds leadership skills. So we designed Pixoul Gaming to offer a new world of digital amusement and showcase Abu Dhabi as a global leader in Esports and digital entertainment.

"The goal is to bring serious gaming into the Middle East, to train professionals at our Academy to compete on a global level while also hosting the international tournaments in our elite coliseum of gaming where the biggest, best gamers on the planet will perform to a live audience of 800+, watched by millions across the world. The venue is almost complete, and we'll be ready to welcome gamers by Q4 of 2022. We are working with the leading international experts and technology partners such as Robocom VR to offer our guests the latest and the best experience," continued Hamilton.

As soon as you enter Pixoul, you will be invited to join the VR mission to save the unique world of Pixoul Planet. Open to everyone, the story is about the rise and fall of a new world and the people who created it.

Karim Ibrahim, Co-founder of Pixoul Gaming and CEO of Robocom VR, commented, "As technology partners and creators of this custom-built VR mission, we are excited to take gamers on an unprecedented adventure across cinematic and interactive experiences. At Robocom VR, our mission is to innovate the static gaming experience, inviting users to a portal into new dimensions of gaming and take control over their destiny while fully immersed in Virtual Reality Entertainment.
