LG is extending its official partnership with esports organisation, Gen.G Esports (Gen.G). As part of this collaboration, LG UltraGear gaming monitors will continue to be provided to Gen.G’s professional teams. The partnership aims to promote esports globally and involves various activations in the international esports scene.
Gen.G operates a number of professional esports teams specialising in popular multiplayer games including League of Legends. Since LG UltraGear was named the official display of Gen.G in 2021, the organisation’s League of Legends team in South Korea has achieved success in the League of Legends Champions Korea. The team secured three consecutive season victories – starting from the 2022 summer season through to the 2023 summer season.
In addition to supporting Gen.G team members, LG collaborates with them in the development of new LG UltraGear gaming monitors. The recently unveiled League of Legends-themed UltraGear OLED gaming monitor (27GR95QL) offers an immersive gaming experience with a unique League of Legends aesthetic and a design influenced by input from professional players. LG also supports the Gen.G Global Academy by providing gaming monitors (25GR75FG) to students aspiring to become esports professionals.
LG Business Solutions Company vice president and head of the IT business unit, YS Lee said, “We are proud and pleased that LG UltraGear is helping Gen.G players to deliver consistently excellent results in major tournaments. LG UltraGear remains committed to developing high-end gaming products and to supporting the latest gaming technologies, with the goal of delivering a gaming experience that can satisfy all esports players, whether they’re enthusiastic amateurs or top-ranked professionals.”
Gen.G Esports CEO, Arnold Hur added, “It is such an honour to enter into our fourth year of partnership with LG UltraGear. Since 2021, they have been our partner in innovation, enriching the world of esports for gaming fans around the globe. They support not only our professional teams, but also the development of the next generation of gamers in the Gen.G Global Academy.”
