SMPR esports secures first brand partnership
Semper Fortis Esports PLC (AQSE: SEMP), the esports company focused on establishing esports teams, forming brand and technology partnerships, and providing business to business advisory services, is pleased to announce its first commercial sponsor, The Topps Company, Inc. Topps is best known as a leading producer of Match Attax, American football, baseball, basketball, ice hockey and other sports and non-sports themed trading cards - https://www.topps.com/ - plus the soon-to-be-released Total Football game.
Topps will be the first to collaborate with SMPR as a branding partner and will be a highlight sponsor for the SMPR Rocket league car decal, which is a collectible item used to customise the appearance of a player's battle-car, provided as an in-game asset in Rocket League games.
The SMPR branded car can be purchased and downloaded by anyone who plays the game from the Rocket League items shop. The Esports Shop is an in-game marketplace where exclusive RLCS-themed items can be purchased. Player banners, decals, and wheels are all featured in the shop.
This is the first time that Rocket League game publisher Psyonix has offered customised decals for Esports teams competing in the RLCS, SMPR is thrilled to join forces with Topps to enhance this opportunity even further.
Viewers can see the SMPR decal in-play when the Rocket League team is in action, pulling in viewership by the thousands across competitions this season. Viewers will now see the latest version of the SMPR decal, including the Topps logo in the Esports Shop, and this will be updated in early 2022.
Jassem Osseiran, COO of Semper Fortis Esports, commented: "We are thrilled to have Topps on board and associated with the SMPR brand. This partnership will look to achieve great things, engaging with both SMPR and Rocket League fan bases."
