Higround, a leader in premium gaming peripherals, has unveiled a limited-edition collection celebrating the advancement of "gaming as art" in collaboration with Minecraft, the sandbox game beloved by players around the world. The collaboration brings the art and creativity of Minecraft players into our lives, inviting gamers to explore and express themselves through a range of expertly crafted peripherals.

The Higround x Minecraft collaboration proves that games can be used as a creative medium and as art. The collection highlights the Basecamp 65, Summit 65 and Performance 65 keyboards, along with matching mousepads and other accessories. Each product features iconic artwork from the blocky world of Minecraft, capturing the essence of its colorful worlds, characters and creatures.



From lush forests to deep caves, this collection allows gamers to bring the artistic flair they exude in their personal worlds into real life.

Rustin Sotoodeh, Creative Director and Co-Founder of Higround, said, "In many parts of society, video games are seen as children's entertainment. However, we believe that video games, especially games like Minecraft, are a form of art. Through Minecraft gameplay, a creative generation has been born who, for the first time in history, are able to build houses and design clothes at a young age. Our collaboration with Minecraft allows us to express the world, the creative side of games."

The Higround x Minecraft collection will be available for purchase from 12pm PST on May 29th, allowing gamers to bring Minecraft's iconic artwork into their gaming environments. For more information and updates on this release, please visit this page.
