The North American esports group, Team Elevate, has disclosed the establishment of an exclusive gaming facility in São Paulo, Brazil.
This establishment, named Rebellion, is slated to serve as the organization’s central office and a practice site for its various competitive teams across multiple game genres.
Revealed through a video distributed via social media, the new center boasts advanced equipment, accessories, and sufficient area to accommodate simultaneous training for multiple squads. Beyond serving as a practice hub for its own groups, Elevate intends to make it accessible to the regional esports community, providing a venue for competitors and the local populace to host gatherings, intensive training sessions, and promotional activities.
The organization disclosed its selection of São Paulo as the site for its primary operations, citing reasons such as “concentrated attention, stable functioning, and streamlined logistics.” When not occupied by its internal teams, Elevate plans to make the facility available for practice to independent teams lacking organizational support.
“Our focus with Rebellion is on achieving high performance, ensuring endurance, and establishing an enduring footprint within Brazil’s esports landscape,” stated Justin Tan, CEO of Team Elevate. “Brazil represents a crucial component of Elevate’s extended strategic vision, and we are dedicated to developing resilient operations and bolstering the indigenous competitive framework.”
Team Elevate is not the sole entity with a presence in Brazil. During 2023, Team Liquid inaugurated a training center in São Paulo, occupying a multi-story edifice that serves as a central hub for its staff and athletes.
Increased Development for Team Elevate
Team Elevate maintains diverse Brazilian athletes and squads competing across several games, such as VALORANT, Rainbow Six, and Honor of Kings. Its Honor of Kings team currently holds the second position in the Honor of Kings Brazil Championship; the victor of this event will proceed to the game’s global tournament, hosted within the framework of the Esports World Cup.
Earlier in February, the organization’s Rainbow Six contingent participated in the Six Invitational 2026, achieving a standing among the top 20, prior to most of its members separating from the organization.
