We are thrilled to share some exciting news about our store's transformation and our brand-new location. As we embark on this journey, we're inviting you to explore the enhancements that make our store more inviting and enjoyable for you, our valued customers. Located just a hop, skip, and a jump from our old location, you can now find us at 1225 Shreveport Barksdale Highway, Shreveport, LA 71105!
In this post, we will highlight the key features of our new space, showcase various areas of the store, and discuss how these changes enhance your gaming experience. So, let’s jump in!
A Fresh Start in a New Location
After months of planning and hard work, we are excited to announce that we finally settled into our new location! 1225 Shreveport Barksdale Highway is both a fresh start and a commitment to providing you with an even better experience.
Our new space is 60% larger than our previous location, allowing us to expand not only our product offerings, but also our play space and back rooms - enabling us to have better storage and organization for both singles and sealed product.

Expanded TCG Singles Selection
With all of this room for activities, we're seriously upgrading our singles selection. This involves quite a few changes, from upgrading inventory and sorting solutions to ramping up our Collections program - so stay tuned for new updates coming your way as we get more and more new systems online!
Community Engagement
We value our community, and our new location offers us the chance to connect with you more than ever.
With more seats than ever before, we're excited to host bigger and more exciting premier events, while also upgrading our weekly events to make the best use of the new real estate. This means even more opportunities to play the games you love!
A dedicated event counter means that you have one hub to sign in, pay for your event, report match results, and recieve your prizing - all without having to worry about front counter/retail congestion. Carpet and acoustic paneling means that you can always hear your opponents and event chaos doesn't spill over into the retail space, even on Commander night! There's even a dedicated Warhammer play area adjacent to the retail floor!
So. Much. Parking.
Anyone who's ever attended a popular event at our store, like a Friday Night Prerelease or a Dungeons and Dragons dual-session event is very familiar with our parking woes. While 1134 excelled in a lot of areas, that 36-spot parking lot was not one of them.
But no more will one have to embark upon a quest to Enterprise just to take a seat at our coveted tables! Our new location has parking (almost) as far as the eye can see! While we don't foresee ever filling the lot to capacity, we'd love for you to try to prove us wrong.
No More Lines
While you'll have to come visit us in-store to see the new bathrooms for yourself, it's safe to say that bathroom lines on D&D nights are a thing of the past! We now have full multi-stall public bathrooms to handle our normal business traffic.
A Moment of Appreciation
There are two groups of people that we owe a debt of gratitude to: The first is you, our players. None of the amazing growth we've seen over the last 7 years would have been possible without the amazing support we've recieved from the community. Everything that we do is to provide the best Gamers Experience, and you return that love back to us tenfold. We'll forever be grateful for each of you.
The second is our amazing staff. These individuals pour their blood, sweat, and tears into making Gamers XP the best that it can be, and we would not be where we are without them. If you see them, make sure to tell them thank you for all of their hard work getting our new space ready!
Join Us in Exciting Times
While there are more upgrades still to come (like the shiny new sign for our storefront), we are incredibly excited about our new location and the changes we have made to enhance your experience. From the inviting atmosphere to our expanded product range, we are committed to providing you with a store that feels like home.
We invite you to visit us at our new location and see the transformation for yourself. Thank you for being a part of our journey, and we look forward to welcoming you soon!
We can’t wait to see you in our stunning new store!
