Barrage is a professional esports organisation founded in 2014 and is one of the most recognisable brands in the European esports scene.
Barrage, by the dictionary definition is: ‘A concentrated artillery bombardment over a wide area.’ In gaming terms that definition is correct, however to those involved, Barrage is far more than that. A community striving to involve as many as possible, a family that has grown over the years to become what is it today. From the staff, to our players and to the fans who support us, we have respect for each and every one of them. Barrage provides the tools and experience needed to succeed and enable everyone to achieve their full potential for the present and future.
Throughout our journey, we have experience nurturing some of the best talent in the EU. Each have respectfully earnt their placements in Call of Duty.
