Comcast Corp. unveiled plans for a new $50 million arena in downtown Philadelphia designed specifically for competitive video game playing.
The 3,500-seat venue, dubbed the Fusion Arena, will have more than 2,000 square feet of LED screens, training facilities and private rooms so players can stream video to their fans. The project, a joint venture with Baltimore’s Cordish Companies, will be located near the same venues where the city’s other professional sports teams play.
