In partnership with Dell Technologies, the University of Texas at Austin recently unveiled its first Esports lounge for students, with more equipment and technologies expected to follow next year.
The Esports lounge is built as an “elite gaming environment for students to train and compete at the highest level in esports competitions, locally and globally,” according to a university press release.
The site features Dell Alienware products including Aurora R13 desktops, Alienware X and M series laptops and a multiplayer console area. The long-term goal and partnership development will support the larger Alienware Longhorn Esports Arena planned to open next school year, the university said.
Once complete, the final plans will include the soon-to-be renovated 3,300-square-foot arena located at the Texas Union Underground and that venue will be equipped with nearly 50 Alienware Aurora R13 and R14 battle stations, a varsity room, production center, console game space and a viewing area, the release said.
