Fusion Arena was a planned multi-use facility located in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Announced on March 25, 2019, the original plan for the venue was to be a dedicated esports arena as the home to the Philadelphia Fusion of the Overwatch League (OWL) within the South Philadelphia Sports Complex. It was originally planned to open prior to the 2021 OWL season.
After construction was delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Comcast Spectacor, the arena's owner, shifted the arena's plan to a multi-use arena. In 2023, the Fusion relocated to Seoul, South Korea and became the Seoul Infernal; Comcast Spectacor later confirmed that the arena would no longer be built.
