Gamereactor will be at Fun & Serious 2021 as official media partner

The list of speakers who will be both physically and virtually in Bilbao grew bigger in the past few days with names such as Andrew Hoffacker (Riot Forge) and Raúl Rubio (Tequila Works), both adding more to the League of Legends lore of the event together with Arcane's Maye Mac-Swiney.
