GameWorks Studio logo.png

GameWorks Studio was a chain of amusement arcades created by Sega GameWorks.

A database query error has occurred. Did you forget to run your application's database schema updater after upgrading?

Query: SELECT `cargo__issuenames`.`name` AS `issuename`,`cargo__issuenames`.`date` AS `date`,`cargo__issuenames`.`pdf` AS `pdf`,`cargo__magnames`.`name` AS `magname`,`cargo__magnames`.`country` AS `country` FROM `cargo__issuenames` LEFT OUTER JOIN `cargo__magnames` ON ((`cargo__issuenames`.`code`=`cargo__magnames`.`code`)) WHERE `cargo__issuenames`.`code`="nextgeneration" and `cargo__issuenames`.`num`="44" ORDER BY `cargo__issuenames`.`name`,`cargo__issuenames`.`date`,`cargo__issuenames`.`pdf`,`cargo__magnames`.`name`,`cargo__magnames`.`country` LIMIT 1 Function: CargoSQLQuery::run Error: 14 Can't change size of file (Errcode: 28 "No space left on device") (localhost)

[1] Following the success of the Stage 35 test venue, the chain was created in 1998 to support the company's larger GameWorks urban entertainment centers, which were originally planned to open at a faster rate than negotiations and real estate opportunities allowed.[2] Several of the locations replaced the older Sega City venues opened during the 1995-1996 period with newer décor.

The chain was quietly de-emphasised by GameWorks during the 2000s, with some locations rebranded to become generic "GameZone" venues and others shuttered with little notice. Most GameWorks Studios are thought to have been closed or sold by 2010.

Its name is referenced in Daytona USA 2 Official Guide for Daytona USA 2's advanced course, though in-game it is called "Joypolis 2020", a direct nod to another Sega-owned amusement facility chain.
