Naming Rights to HyperX Esports Truck Unveiled in Time for CES 2019

Multiyear Agreement with Allied Esports for North America’s First Mobile Esports Arena

In time for CES 2019, HyperX, the gaming division of Kingston Technology Company, Inc., and Allied Esports, a global esports entertainment company, announced a multiyear naming rights agreement for North America’s first mobile esports arena, now named HyperX Esports Truck. The truck, formally known as Esports Arena DRIVE, made its debut during CES 2018 and will return to the event next month at the Sands Convention Center to make its first 2019 appearance as HyperX Esports Truck.

Expanding HyperX’s presence at gaming, entertainment, lifestyle and music events around the country, the state-of-the-art, 80-foot, 18-wheel, 35-ton semi-trailer unfolds with a push of a button to reveal a self-contained mobile arena featuring a competition stage with full production facilities, a caster studio, social media center and VIP lounge.

In November, HyperX announced the naming rights to HyperX Esports Arena Las Vegas, and now with the mobile esports arena, the naming rights relationship between HyperX and Allied Esports continues to grow.

“HyperX is pleased to continue our relationship with Allied Esports,” said Daniel Kelley, director of corporate marketing, HyperX. “Having the HyperX Esports Truck, and beyond, gives us even more opportunities to reach gamers at tournaments, festivals and sports events in 2019.”

During CES 2019, HyperX will be showing new products including gaming headsets, mice, keyboards, RGB memory products, and its first HyperX USB microphone for streamers, influencers and casters. HyperX will announce a new gaming headset designed in collaboration with a Southern California headphone manufacturer, featuring fully immersive audio capabilities. The products will be demonstrated at The Venetian press suite and CES Unveiled and Pepcom Digital Experience press events.

Beyond the electronics show, Las Vegas visitors on the strip can now witness the newly revealed HyperX Esports Arena Las Vegas and the new large signage installation on the Luxor Hotel. A time-lapse video of the HyperX logo going up for the world to see from air and land can be viewed here.
