Japan is getting its first gym for esports in Tokyo. Aptly named ‘Esports Gym’, the place aims to attract both professionals and newbie gamers. Interested gamers can visit the gym to enjoy gaming or get training from professional players.

The esports gym is the combined initiative of Tokyo Metro and esports company Gecipe. With it set to open on 19 May, this facility will even offer an aptitude test part of its online limited course that gives players a chance to join a professional esports team. The store currently has a total of 12 gaming PCs, so it’s not a huge establishment at the moment.
