ReDeYe joins Gfinity

The news comes less than 24 hours after it was revealed that Chaloner would be stepping down from his position as ESL's Head of Commentary to "pursue new opportunities."

Chaloner, who will officially join Gfinity in April, is one of the most famous broadcasters in esports, with an impressive career spanning over a decade.

He will be in charge of ensuring premium broadcasting quality in all Gfinity events as the UK-based company is on the verge of opening its first eSports venue, the Gfinity Arena, at the Fulham Broadway multiplex, in London.

"It is a hugely exciting time to be joining Gfinity and I look forward to being part of the company as it continues to revolutionise the eSports industry in the UK," Chaloner said in a statement.

The decision to hire Chaloner is the latest high-profile move made by Gfinity, which hired former DreamHack CEO Robert Ohlen as its creative director earlier in the month.

Until the end of the year, Gfinity will host four $50,000 CS:GO Masters tournaments at the Gfinity Arena, the first of which scheduled for next week.
