State of Noxide - March 2026

Hi everyone! We here at Noxide hope you’re all staying warm and dry amidst all the crazy weather this March. In between shutdowns and snowstorms, our team has been working hard towards our planned opening next month. We’ve got a lot of progress to share, so let’s get right to it!

First and foremost, we have our space! We officially got the keys to our retail location in Columbia Gateway at the end of February, marking the first tangible step in our transition from “idea” to “store”. Since then, we’ve been painting, building, and measuring… there’s so much to do, but it’s all looking great so far!

Additionally, we’re pleased to announce that our friends at Secret Lab will be supplying our desks and chairs! We’ve been working with them to make sure you’ll game in comfort and style when you’re at Noxide, and we couldn’t be happier with the results! Our chairs arrived earlier in the month, and the desks aren’t too far behind.

Wondering what those chairs are going to look like? We're planning a special event to celebrate the occasion! Get hyped, get ready, and get... seated: the Chair Reveal is coming this April.

And with the arena painted, work has begun on the center of attention: our stage! After only a few days' work, the foundation is set and the rest is going to be done by mid-April. Stay tuned for a full build video once it's completed!

Finally, we’re happy to announce that our discord’s launch promotion “Press Start” will be extended through April! If you want your free PC time and a snazzy blue name, make sure to jump into our server and introduce yourself. We won’t bite!

That’s all for this month! Stay tuned for the April update in a few weeks, where we’ll have more to share about our opening timeline and pricing structure. We can’t wait to see you when we finally open our doors this spring!

Keep playing your game,

-Team Noxide
