Game Up Studios is preparing to open at The Landing in Renton, located at 828 N. 10th Pl., according to social media posts shared by owner Victor Villeda, who is known professionally as Lil Vick Da Barber.
The new barbershop is expected to debut on July 12, which coincides with the owner’s birthday. While an opening date has not been officially confirmed, Villeda described the milestone as the realization of a long-held goal.
Game Up Studios will mark a new chapter for Villeda. Through his social media presence, the barber highlights a client-first approach and a passion for creativity that extends beyond the barber chair.
In addition to barbering services, Game Up Studios is expected to showcase Villeda’s artwork throughout the space.
The owner, who is also a painter, has shared plans to display and sell original pieces at the studio, including certified works reflecting his artistic interests and collaborations within the pop culture and convention community.
Social media previews indicate the concept will combine grooming services with a bold visual identity influenced by gaming culture, neon aesthetics, and Villeda’s personal artistic style.
