SAN DIEGO, July 15, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Leading gaming
headset and accessory brand Turtle Beach (Nasdaq: HEAR) and PC
peripherals brand, ROCCAT, today announced a new multi-year
partnership as the official gaming audio and accessories partner of
Erin Ashley Simon. Ms. Simon is a
multimedia personality, host, and producer at the forefront of
contemporary culture, with Forbes calling her "the future of
esports storytelling" in a 2019 article. Together, Turtle Beach,
ROCCAT, and Ms. Simon will produce content highlighting the power
and benefit of using high-quality gaming equipment on the digital
battlefield and during broadcasts, and Ms. Simon will also have a
hand in helping to shape Turtle Beach and ROCCAT's future marketing
initiatives by working with the internal teams to help craft
campaigns, features, and stories.
"When we look for partners, we seek leaders who share our
passion for gaming and we're impressed with everything Erin
represents as a creator, a communicator, and a player," said
Juergen Stark, CEO, Turtle Beach.
"It's an honor to have Erin join us and work with both the Turtle
Beach and ROCCAT brands so we can further excel in more areas of
gaming, culture, and content."
Erin Ashley Simon was a gamer
well before gaming influencers and content creators started gaining
mainstream attention. A decade ago, as gaming culture began to
expand, she harnessed the power of blogging and evolved her insight
and entertainment abilities into the Grass Routes podcast, a show
she continues to host today. Many will also recognize Erin as a
familiar face from numerous esports events, and she was also
previously a host of Cheddar Esports. Erin sees her ties in gaming,
music, and entertainment as powerful assets as she creates unique
content illuminating the intersection of gaming and pop
culture.
"It's been exhilarating to witness the speed of the evolution of
gaming, and to be able to harness that energy and introduce the
culture to an even wider audience," said Ms. Simon. "Turtle Beach
and ROCCAT's gear definitely elevates my gaming with the best sound
and precision tools for the job, but more importantly they amplify
my vision for what gaming can become and I'm thrilled to have
partners as devoted to gaming as I am."
