“SteelSeries is the type of company that you hope to become associated with in this industry – where it’s not just about saying they make products for eSports players, but a brand that is actually doing it,” said Brian Cordry, Winterfox CEO.

SteelSeries, the leading hardware brand for eSports, today announced a first-of-its kind partnership with Winterfox. The professional CS:GO team will train full-time and work alongside the SteelSeries team in a private suite inside of the company’s global headquarters in Chicago.

“Our core product and brand values were formed as a combination of our original company DNA and years of meeting industry demands,” said Travis Hezel, SteelSeries’ Global Director of Sponsorships. “The Winterfox project addresses a multitude of those values that will progress eSports as a whole, and how sponsors like Steelseries interact with customers, bringing new product developments and more personal connections with eSports athletes.”
