Cheaper Than a Latte

We’ve been hard at work crunching the numbers and are excited to share our rates! Students are at the heart of everything we do and we believe our pricing structure reflects our mission to enhance community, provide dynamic spaces, and foster student engagement. We will continue to do everything we can to increase access for students and eliminate barriers to participation, such as cost.

As we compared local PC gaming rates, we aspired to provide UW students with the least expensive experience in the Seattle area. And we did! GameWorks charges $5/hour, $20 for 5 hours ($4/hour), or $25 for a half-day pass. And compared to other collegiate esports arenas, we are among the least expensive. The University of California, Irvine charges $4/hour or $36 for 10 hours ($3.60/hour).
