QUT is showcasing its e-sports arena at Open Day on Sunday. The 27-player competitive video gaming facility opened last month as a pay to play venue which is open to all. It’s at the heart of the university’s plan to “position QUT as the industry leaders in Australian eSports.”
As a way of branding QUT as a future-faced university this is impossible to beat, although the marketers might have to think a bit about branding. “A university for the real world” hardly applies to e-sports scenarios.
