Local Gaming Cafe Chain Hosts East Africa’s First FIFAe Continental Series Qualifier

Nairobi’s largest gaming cafe chain, NextGen Arena, was selected by FIFAe to host the East African qualifiers for the FIFAe Continental Series. The event drew elite virtual footballers from Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, and Rwanda, competing for a spot at the global finals. The winner, a 19-year-old from Nairobi, earned a direct contract to represent East Africa. This puts Kenya on the global esports map as a competitive and capable host nation, said the managing director of NextGen Arena.
