First time to open more than three stores in Japan
Due to the spread of the new coronavirus, gamers are spending more time on their hobbies at home, and many have started streaming videos related to games.
The newly announced "AIM Ikebukuro" is equipped with private rooms for video streaming and can be used not only for playing games but also for a wide range of other purposes, such as live video streaming.
In addition, there are many e-sports players throughout Japan who have difficulties in terms of communication environment and devices.
The "e-SPORTS CAFE AIM" stores are equipped with high-performance gaming devices in addition to an optimal communication environment, making it possible to play games comfortably not only for individuals but also for teams of multiple players.
Online events and other events will also be held.
Even though dense events are frowned upon, e-sports events that can be held online are attracting a lot of attention.
In addition to the usual online events, "e-SPORTS CAFE AIM" is planning to hold inter-store exchange events and regional events in Tokyo, Sendai, and Sapporo, taking advantage of the fact that it operates three stores, the largest number in Japan.
With the birth of a new base for e-sports events that can be participated in from anywhere in the world with a communications environment, "e-SPORTS CAFE AIM" will be a driving force in the e-sports scene.
