The 400-acre sports complex is the first to house a Game On esports center in Indiana. Game On Chief Visionary Officer Rick Barretto and partners are hoping the strategic launch will elevate interest statewide.
“When you mention gaming, people typically think of a kid playing an online game into the early morning hours – think again,” said Barretto. “It is really a new frontier in entertainment, education and competition that attracts millions of participants, spectators and brands.”
