Mizzou Gaming Lounge – University of Missouri’s Flagship Collegiate Esports Hub

The Mizzou Gaming Lounge, on the ground floor of Center Hall, emerges as the campus’s central gaming retreat, a student-focused haven blending rivalry, recreation, and real connections. Sparked by the Mizzou Esports varsity program, this space elevates everyday campus life into a dynamic arena for Tigers to team up and thrive. Step inside to discover 19 high-powered MSI Aegis desktops, each paired with 27-inch Optix LED monitors, headsets, keyboards, and precision controllers—primed for spontaneous drop-ins or structured showdowns. Plush soft seating, bar-height tables, and a wall of TVs craft a relaxed social flow, while console additions (Switch, PlayStation, Xbox) are on the horizon to round out the options.

The facility is open to the general public alongside University of Missouri students, faculty, and staff—walk-ins welcome with off-campus rates at $6.50/hr or $65/10hrs bundles, while affiliates enjoy discounts at $3.50/hr for students, plus free trials and events like summer youth camps.

The lounge runs weekly, with MizzouRec members checking in like any rec spot keeping the energy steady for casual queues or club scrims. It’s more than screens, it’s a catalyst for campus bonds, where competition ignites without overwhelming the fun.
