As the world's leading e-sports equipment brand, GTPLAYER announced its official partnership with Blizzard Entertainment to launch the GTPLAYER Lich King co-branded gaming chair, which is also GTPLAYER's largest collaborative series to date, and will be released globally on October 24. "World of Warcraft" is definitely high on the list of the masterpieces enjoying worldwide popularity, and among the "World of Warcraft" series, the Lich King is one of the most popular, with well-rounded and successful characters and countless fans who have found love and hate in him.

This September is destined to be extraordinary for the existing players of "World of Warcraft". Blizzard officially announced that the "Wrath of the Lich King" content will be launched in the World of Warcraft Classic on September 26. The Lich King once again reigns in the world, which is enough to excite millions of fans.




Aaron Wu, founder of GTPLAYER, said, "The gaming chair is closely related to the player's gaming experience and is the core development project of GTPLAYER. We are pleased to provide players with a unique gaming experience through our partnership with Blizzard.

The Lich King co-branded gaming chair is inspired by the Lich King, with a total of two styles and four colors. The chair as a whole is built in the shape of a "throne", with the embroidered patterns of the Lich King's iconic Helm of Domination and Frostmourne on the front, and the classic shape of the Lich King on the back. which will bring players into the burning scenes of "World of Warcraft" in seconds and instantly ignites the atmosphere. With smooth lines and a cool five-claw grip, the chair is easy to sit and lie down, chic and dynamic. Exclusive NFC anti-counterfeiting certification chip, enlarged adjustable 4D armrests, Bluetooth audio and other enthusiast-level configurations are enough to bring players a strong sense of competition.

This gaming chair co-branded by GTPLAYER and Blizzard Entertainment will be pre-sold on October 24. In addition to the chair, GTPLAYER revealed that a joint gaming table would be launched later, which will continue to spur enthusiasm and expectations.

That's a truckload of -wholly unsubstantiated- marketing bullshit if i say so myself, if you ever wonder "how much bullshit-spiel i can write about a commodity item" then look no further to PR like this(and any other "gaming chair" manufacturer press release too)

the fuck is this?
"we need to justify our PR-dept budget and blow-n-hoes is not an acceptable expense", so they just type the most outlandish bullshit they could come up with to say "see, we're working!".

the only thing missing was "a sense of pride and satisfaction at sitting in this chair"

TBF the "xD armrest" is about the only part of that speil that's not BS, and about the only hard specs they have listed.
4D means it's adjustable in 4 ways: height, lengthwise position, rotation and sideway position

Oh look, another rebrand of the same cheap racing seat into an expensive bad chair

Anyway...

Not much different than buying a jersey from your favorite sports team or some rock band t-shirt. A plain t-shirt is way less expensive than something sold at the merch table at a concert.

Fashion sells.

If GTPLAYER just changes the textile covering the seat frame with something different silkscreened on it, that's fine.

The "Lich King" may be back in the form of a chair, but I reckon this product is going to be dead on arrival. Anyone with common sense will know these kinds of chairs tend to be cheaply made and overpriced. The chair may have some kind of "relation to the gaming experience" but not so much from the ass's perspective. There is the saying, "hindsight is always 20/20", so either one adheres to their backside's inclination or they suffer it out for the extra "gaming experience". :laugh:
