The center has the latest equipment and focuses on the promotion of esports in Africa tournaments and esports players training for international competitions.

Paradise Game Center officially opened its doors on Wednesday, July 24th, 2019. Located in the neighborhood with the largest population of the Ivorian capital, the first floor of the new shopping center Cosmos Yopougon, is now the home of the largest video game venue of West Africa.

With 1200 sq. meters of space, the center has the largest equipment and focuses on the promotion of esports in Africa through tournaments and e-sport players training for international competitions. Video games fans can now enjoy the latest games while preparing for the upcoming FEJA, the largest e-sport event in Africa.

Starting in September 2019, a dedicated room of 80 m² will host middle school and high school students for training sessions on computers, robotics, and the development of video games.

In 2020, the game center will host the first Ed-Tech & e-Learning program of Yopougon where startups, teachers, students, and entrepreneurs will work together on creating future educational tools for Africa.

These two initiatives are aimed at getting the youth to join the new technology wave and be abreast of robotics, artificial intelligence, and virtual reality.

Paradise Game provides entertainment for children and parents as well. Through various games and activities, they will learn how to build a stronger parent-child relationship.

For the opening of the game center, the entire month of August will be dedicated to celebration activities both inside and outside the Cosmos Yopougon shopping center. From video game crash courses to learning poems and playing board games, the community will be able to discover everything Paradise Game Center has to offer.

We ambition to transform the entertainment industry in Africa by using games as a way to learn and by allowing young Africans to discover the video game field, robotics, and virtual reality”, declared Sidick Bakayoko, founder of Paradise Game.

With more than 500 000 visitors expected per year, Paradise Game Center is positioning itself as a platform to entertain, educate and empower young Africans.
