Who we are

A gaming lounge built by players, for players

PrimeBattleVision opened on Queens Road in 2019 after three Leicester ranked-grinders got tired of laggy home setups. We built the arena we always wanted: 240Hz displays, wired fibre on every seat, and staff who actually know the difference between a smurf and a boosted account.

From after-school casuals to promoted esports teams practising for the BUEC finals, the floor stays loud, colourful and welcoming. Snacks from the Clarendon Park cafés are always allowed at your station.

  • Walk-ins welcome daily from 11:00
  • PC, console and VR under one roof
  • Student discount every weekday afternoon

Everything before you press start

The questions our front desk in Clarendon Park hears most.

Off-peak PC seats start at £6/hour before 5pm, rising to £8/hour on evenings and weekends. VR bays are £14 per 30-minute session. Student cards get 20% off Monday to Thursday until 6pm.

Walk-ins are always welcome and there's usually a free seat mid-week. For Friday and Saturday evenings, or any group of six or more, we strongly recommend booking a station online so we can reserve you together.

Every PC runs Steam, Epic, Riot and Battle.net with the biggest titles pre-installed — Valorant, League, CS2, Fortnite, Rocket League and more. Consoles cover PS5 and Series X, and the VR bays run Beat Saber, Pistol Whip and Elite Dangerous.

Absolutely. Our tournament stage and 12 adjacent seats can be block-booked from £160 for two hours, including a host to run your bracket. Private hire is popular for birthdays, stag nights and works socials.

There's free two-hour street parking on the surrounding Clarendon Park roads and a pay-and-display car park two minutes away on Montague Road. We're also a six-minute walk from Leicester railway station.

Booked the tournament stage for my brother's 18th and it was unreal. The staff ran a full Rocket League bracket and even sorted a winners' trophy. Best birthday we've done.

I come every Wednesday for the student rate. Zero lag on 240Hz monitors and my rank has genuinely climbed since I stopped playing on my old laptop at home.

First time trying VR and the team walked me through everything patiently. Beat Saber in the corner bay with the lights down is such a laugh. Already booked again.

Our uni esports team practises here before every BUEC fixture. Reliable fibre, comfy chairs and they'll open the private room early if we message ahead. Proper setup.

Brought my two kids on a rainy Saturday and they lasted four hours on the consoles. Reasonable prices and I could grab a coffee next door and bring it in. Faultless.

The Friday Rocket League Rumble is the highlight of my week. Friendly crowd, decent prizes and it never feels sweaty or gatekept for casual players like me.
