LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Gaming Community Network (GCN), a GameSquare Esports company, and MiO, a liquid water enhancer that transforms hydration and makes it fun with just a few drops, today announced the MiO Level Up Challenge, a tournament featuring Fortnite, pitting top gaming influencers and world-class athletes against one another for cash prizes. Starting today, competitors will form teams and compete on behalf of MiO flavors throughout the campaign, which seeks to pair bold plays with bolder ways to stay hydrated while gaming.
"When gamers enter tournaments or even just commit to a night of gameplay with their friends, it's no secret that they are in for the long haul, and staying hydrated is an essential piece of that," said Samantha Mills, Associate Director of Brand Communications at Kraft Heinz. “We knew that MiO could level up their experience in more ways than one, including a new way to look at hydration as a way to elevate gameplay, and hope to bring a new layer of fun hydration into the mix by allowing these gamers to hydrate their own way with a variety of bold flavors."
The MiO Level Up Challenge will be a tournament featuring Fortnite, consisting of 90 participants to start, including battle royale icons TimTheTatman, Thinnd, and UFC fighters Max Holloway and Megan Anderson. An initial seeding tournament will kick off the event August 9th, serving to form the 10 teams, each representing official MiO flavors, that will compete for cash prizes in the finals. The finals will be livestreamed on Complexity’s official Twitch channel, as well as through participants’ personal channels, and will feature built-in hydration breaks to give competitors and audiences a chance to refuel and re-energize during the competition.
“Gamers crave the high-energy experiences that come with gaming, and staying hydrated is key to performing your best in those situations,” said Drew Brunson, Chief Strategy Officer at GCN. “Not only do we want to help establish MiO as the ultimate hydrator, but we want to do it in a way that marries bold gameplay, personalities, and flavors.”
The MiO Level Up Challenge marks the brand’s growing commitment to gaming, allowing them to further connect with the young, highly-sought-after consumers that make up this community. GCN will operate all aspects of the tournament, including talent sourcing and livestreaming the broadcast for fans.
Gamers had a chance to try MiO at TimTheTatman’s Tailgate on July 16-17, where MiO was the event’s Official Hydration Partner.
