Arena Desktop
The native Arena app — fast, focused, and secure. Sign in once and jump straight into your tournaments, matches, and dashboard.
A native home for your Arena
Arena Desktop wraps the full Arena experience in a fast, dedicated application window. No browser tabs, no distractions — just your tournaments, matches, and community in one place.
Your session is stored securely in your operating system's keychain, so you stay signed in safely between launches.

Native performance
A dedicated app window that launches fast and stays out of your way — no browser overhead between you and the match.
Secure sign-in
Your login tokens are stored in your operating system's keychain — Keychain on macOS, Credential Manager on Windows, libsecret on Linux — never in plain files.

One-click launch
Deep links open tournaments, matches, and invites straight in the app so you land exactly where you need to be.
Distraction-free
A dedicated window keeps you focused on the game and your community instead of a wall of browser tabs.
Automatic updates
