For events and seasons
The setup you need, with operating layers when you need them.
Fortress delivers, installs and supports the equipment. The operating model depends on the product: PC Arena and Rekt Room are self-serve by default; Tabletop Tavern separates a self-serve cabinet from hosted live nights; Sim Racing includes one technician per up to four simulators.

Proven in public.
The same team works at scale well outside our own venues. Game On, our flagship activation for the Australian Open, is the clearest evidence.
The venues behind it

Make coming back the point.
Connected Series is an optional program layer that can be added to Pop-Up PC Arena, Rekt Room, Tabletop Tavern or Sim Racing Garage. It never runs on its own. Standings, fixtures, ladders and finals are scoped to the selected base experience.
Connected Series is separately scoped and quoted on top of the base experience.
- Players chase a ladder across every visit, not just one big night out.
- Where the brief calls for it, Connected Series links multiple venues into one season.
- Presentation, broadcast and finals are added only where scoped.
