Dolce&Gabbana Got gooDGame
Legendary Fashion House Teams up with Esports Orgs to Chronicle the Inside Lives of Gamers in New Web Series
LAS VEGAS, NEVADA, USA, November 4, 2022 /EINPresswire.com/ — The eight-episode series follows four of the world’s premiere esports teams as they train and compete for international glory
Iconic Italian luxury fashion house Dolce&Gabbana, in partnership with Italy’s Mkers, a company dedicated to the world of competitive gaming, announced today the premiere of the exciting new web series gooDGame.
Premiering today and available to watch now across Dolce&Gabbana’s multiple digital channels, the series follows four teams of international competitive pro gamers. gooDGame chronicles the lives of players from global pro orgs Mkers (Rome), Mibr (Brazil), Scarz (Tokyo), and Las Vegas-based DarkZero, capturing the intense behind-the-scenes journeys of life as an esports pro inside a gaming house.
Created by a unique collaboration of Dolce&Gabbana and esports org Mkers, at the heart of this first-of-its-kind docuseries are intimate stories of friendship, competition and the commitment and passion it takes to become a champion. Each of the eight episodes will showcase the athletes’ ambitions, struggles, and triumphs as they train for major international competitions, all while experiencing the ups and downs of personal and professional growth, and the team camaraderie that goes far beyond the screen of a gaming setup.
“We’re so proud that Dolce&Gabbana has supported us in creating a twinning of esport teams,” said Maurizio Quintavalle, Marketing Manager of Mkers. “It was fascinating to come into contact with such different cultures and see that values of esports, on the other hand, are exactly the same”
To celebrate the launch of the series, Dolce&Gabbana is launching a special, limited edition gooDGame fashion capsule, which is revealed in the first episode and is a featured staple throughout the series. The collection, dedicated to gamers and inspired by fan-favorite retro galaxy video games, is now available exclusively on dolcegabbana.com.
