The "Hakui esports city project" has been running in Hakui since 2022 to promote new tourism, improve health, and revitalize the city. We are holding hands-on events such as the Hakui eSports Festa, and contributing to the understanding and spread of eSports.
In July 2024, LAKUNA Hakui opened in front of JR Hakui Station and equipped a studio dedicated to e-sports. In order to further promote the project, GLOE Corporation was selected as the best proposal for the project in a selection process based on a public call for proposals.
"Challenge Day 2024" will be held in the main hall of LAKUNA Hakui, where visitors can try their hand at eSports with game titles such as Watermelon Game, Taiko Drum Master: Dondafuru Festival, Tekken 8, and Minecraft. In addition, the eSports Studio will be holding a hands-on event for eSports game titles such as FPS using gaming PCs.
Three of the day's experience projects are introduced below!
