Gaming chair manufacturer Secretlab has revealed that they've partnered with South Korean company OGN to produce the first 100-seat battle royale studio in North America, which will as expected feature Secretlab merchandise and will focus around titles including Fortnite, PUBG, and perhaps even Call of Duty: Black Ops 4's Blackout mode.
"I've been a fan of OGN ever since the Starcraft II GSL back in 2011," said Ian Alexander Ang, Secretlab's co-founder and CEO. "OGN was the first-mover in a new game like Starcraft II, and today, are still pioneering new trends in esports leagues and events, particularly with their new Battle Royale studio—the first such arena in North America. The standards they've set for the esports industry is incredibly high and we're proud to be working alongside them; supporting tournaments and professional players at their new studio with our ultra-comfortable, award-winning chairs."
Is this a good move, considering the popularity of battle royale?
