Blizzard has opened an e-sports stadium in Taiwan

Blizzard already has an unlicensed amusement park — so why not a licensed stadium?

That’s indeed exactly what the company has built in Taiwan. The so-called Blizzard eStadium (seriously, I thought this was an April Fools’ Day joke at first, but no) apparently seats 250 fans and is stuffed with swag and snacks.

This weekend, Blizzard will use the new venue to kick off the Overwatch Pacific Championship, the regional sub-tourney that ultimately leads to the Overwatch World Cup at BlizzCon this fall.

“The venue will expand to host matches from other games in Blizzard’s competitive retinue, like HearthStone and StarCraft 2,” reports Engadget via its Chinese branch.
