Games Arena

The Games Arena is a large coliseum located at the heart of Port Oralaun on Yeddo. It was constructed in 1922 AB. Although it sustained heavy damage during the Virtual Wars, the stadium was rebuilt with the help of Virtuoso.

On the outside, the Games Arena appears as a gigantic sphere with dynamic electronic patterns that can display all sorts of images. The inside is an arena where anything from concerts from sporting events can be hosted. The inside of the sphere has similar dynamic electronic patterns for displaying any sort of image, and it also come equipped with augmented reality projectors, allowing anyone with a virtual reality headset to project themselves into the arena. Attendance to the Games Arena is completely free if the person is using a virtual headset though in-person tickets can get quite expensive. Many corporations also take the opportunity to display a wide range of advertisements and sponsorships, although the cost to display an ad in the Games Arena is not insignificant.

One of the most popular sports are gladiator tournaments. Contestants that participate have to demonstrate their technological combat skills to incapacitate the opponent or force them to surrender. The displays of combat are often described as spectacular due to the wide array of weapons used - everything from nanobots to hardlight.

These tournaments are also a gambling hotspot. Many patrons will make bets on who will win the tournament, and they will actively try to rig the outcome in their favor.
