The free gaming attraction in the UK where you can play as much as you like
GAMERS in the UK might not know about it, but there's an attraction that will let them play games consoles for free as much as they like.
Gaming can be an expensive hobby, but there are ways to still get your fix, including places like the The Microsoft Experience Centre’s Xbox Lounge.
There you can find the free-to-play gaming zone, that opened in Spring last year.
The centre in Regent Street, London has three dedicated gaming areas, with 21 gaming screens for people to enjoy.
Those three zones include the Cloud Gaming Zone, with 55” Neo QLED Smart TVs for game streaming via the Samsung Gaming Hub - an online gaming service with no downloads, storage limits, or console required.
There's also the Living Room Zone with 98” Neo QLED 4K HDR Smart TVs and the Tournament Zone containing 12 24” inch Odyssey G3 Gaming Monitors for people to engage in some friendly competition.
