There’s officially one less place to play giant arcade games while drinking alcoholic beverages in Gwinnett County.

The Dave & Buster’s location near Gwinnett Place Mall in Duluth closed as of March 4, according to the Texas-based company’s website. A Lawrenceville location on Sugarloaf Parkway remains open, and is now the only Dave & Buster’s in Gwinnett County.

This closure comes as nearby Gwinnett Place Mall struggles to attract and retain tenants. The mall may be sold to a developer who wants to turn it into a cricket stadium.

The company has two other locations in metro Atlanta; one in Alpharetta near North Point Mall and another in Marietta.

A Dave & Buster’s spokeswoman did not immediately return a request for comment.
