Gaming

The USO Gaming program provides gaming capabilities, online and in-person, for service members and their families, in addition to public partnerships, such as invitationals, streaming, content creation and entertainment events. The program features local, regional and national events, including numerous tournaments, leagues, community events and competitions.

USO Gaming continues to expand through the construction of USO Gaming Centers and dedicated gaming spaces within existing USO centers across the globe, as well as featuring prominent gaming experts and military family programming. Service members deployed to the front lines are entertained and connected through USO Gaming’s Rapid Response Gaming Kits, which are portable, fully contained gaming kits designed to support service members in the most austere locations around the world.

Gaming promotes mental wellness, social interaction, and entertainment while also providing service members and their families increased resiliency, stress relief, communication opportunities, and enhanced military comradery. The USO strives to create a comprehensive gaming program that caters to a variety of gaming needs and wants, ultimately supporting the largest active-duty gaming community. USO Gaming is a signal to many service members who love gaming that the USO understands them and their need to step back from “real life” for a while and just have some fun.
