As a part of the provider’s esports offerings, Thabet will oversee a separate esports-centred section on Max it, called the Game Corner. The Game Corner section on the app currently boasts a catalogue of over 50 game items spanning more than 20 games. Also, Thabet will continue to advance the Orange Esports Arena platform, which offers resources for esports players in Tunisia.
The telecommunications provider announced the launch of a redesigned Orange Gaming hub at the company’s OMEA (Orange Middle East Africa) event last week, in an attempt to bolster Tunisia’s developing esports sector. Moreover, the company recently announced a partnership with Tunisian esports organisation GnG Esports.
