With gaming being an ever-growing and changing area of many people's interests, Aston Gaming and Esports Society wishes to unite all of the students at Aston with an interest in gaming – be it casual or competitive.

We welcome gamers from all aspects of gaming, whether that’s different consoles, mobile, or PC, or for different games like: Among Us, Minecraft, Apex Legends, Hearthstone, WoW, Destiny and countless more. If you enjoy gaming, connecting with new and exciting people and learning more about your favourite games this is the place for you.

For our more competitive members, we don’t only want to compete, but we desire to win and prosper above the other universities who dare challenge our ambitions. We’ll do this by competing in University Esport competitions held by both National Student Esports and the National University Esports League. We hope to continue, as well as set-up various Aston Esport teams to accommodate all players from any gaming background, experience and interests. Games like: CS:GO, League of Legends, Valorant, Overwatch, Rocket League and many more currently have competitive leagues, and we are always on the lookout for players to form new teams!

In order for us to expand and grow as a society, we are always looking for new players to join our community and our teams, and we are also looking for more players to join our in-house events, play casually and have a good time. We have set our sights on hosting in-house mini tournaments with chances to win prizes of all kinds (as well as some killer bragging rights), full lobby games on your favourite games, including among us – which always seems to be a challenge when by yourself – the chance of setting up servers on Minecraft for everyone to play together and create incredible creations and friendships and among many other things.

With the collective involvement of all gamers at Aston, casual or competitive, we can achieve our endeavours and thrive as a society to become something great, but it’s only possible with your help.
