A First-of-Its-Kind Campus Gaming Lounge
CU Â鶹ӰԺ and Alienware, Dell Technologies’ gaming brand, opened the university’s first dedicated esports and gaming lounge on campus Jan. 25.
A $1.2 million contribution funded the renovation of a 1,275-square-foot space in the University Memorial Center, which houses desktops, gaming laptops, a multiplayer console area and a broadcast studio. The lounge includes spaces for esports athletes and gamers to play, train and compete in competitions around the world.
CU Â鶹ӰԺ has more than 5,000 students interacting with 15 gaming-specific student organizations, including esports, video, tabletop, board, role-playing and trading card games.
