• Cognitive improvements - Improve memory, focus, and attention while learning problem-solving skills and enhancing creativity.
• Develop motor skills - Exercise fine motor skills and develop better hand-eye coordination and gaming performance.

For most competitive games, players usually prefer to use their own accounts in order to maintain their rankings and stat-tracking, so we will provide a small number of licenses for players who want to play on a more casual basis. Each computer in the Esports Arena will be installed with software called GGLeap that makes it easy for users to log into whatever accounts they have (Steam, Battle.net, etc) in order to play the games they own.

No! At the ºÚÁÏÉçÇø Esports Lounge, we ask that you do not install other games that are either not installed or not-approved! Installing or playing games that are not on the list of approved games is a violation of the policies within the Lounge.

The Esports Lounge is free for ºÚÁÏÉçÇø drop in recreation during our normal hours. If you or your club would like to reserve space for practices or events, it is available for rentals.

The ºÚÁÏÉçÇø Esport Lounge and Arena can host meetings, tryouts, practices, tournaments, and much more! As long as your request is submitted in advance for approval, suggestions are more than welcome!
