Ever been out for a night on the town only to think that you’d be having more fun back at home playing video games? Well now you can combine both your addiction to alcohol and gaming in the one convenient location!
Australia’s first dedicated video game bar – the ‘Mana Bar’ – will open its doors in February in Brisbane’s Fortitude Valley, offering punters “a stylish geek chic interior design with multiple LCD screens attached to the walls with playable next-gen console systems”.
The bar is the brainchild of Brisbane locals: Guy ‘Yug’ Blomberg (Australian Gamer co-creator), Ben ‘Yahtzee’ Croshaw (Zero Punctuation’s hat-wearing, vile-spewing presenter), Pras Moorthy (Senior Designer at Sega Creative Assembly), and Shay Leighton (an experienced bartender).
Offering free entry, free gaming and a cosy 50-person maximum capacity, this unique establishment sounds like it will be an ideal place to relax with a colourful drink without all that pesky dancing. Mana Bar is also set to host many special events such as game release parties, Guitar Hero tournaments, trivia nights and game launch events.
