FOUNTAIN VALLEY, Calif.--()--HyperX, the gaming division of Kingston Technology Company, Inc. and brand leader in gaming and esports, today announced German league football star Marco Reus as the latest HyperX global ambassador. Marco will exclusively be wearing HyperX gaming headsets and using HyperX keyboards, mice and mousepads while gaming, streaming and on the road during the season.

Marco, who plays for Germany’s international football team and his home city team of Borussia Dortmund, was voted to be featured on the cover of FIFA 2017 by the game’s community last year. In his limited free time, Marco loves playing Call of Duty, NBA and FIFA on his console and most recently experimenting with FIFA on his mobile. Marco joins HyperX’s growing list of brand ambassadors who are also passionate gamers including Tottenham and England footballer, Dele Alli and award-winning artist Post Malone, American football player Juju Smith-Schuster, NBA basketball players Gordon Hayward, Joel Embiid, De’Aaron Fox and many streamers and esports professionals.

“Gaming has become such a big part of our day to day lives, from playing on my mobile to coming home after training and playing a few hours of FIFA with friends after training,” said Marco Reus. “I am happy to be joining the HyperX family. Their products not only immerse me in the game but also help me to crush the competition. I am looking forward to a successful partnership with HyperX in the future.”

Marco, who signed a two-year deal with HyperX, is set to be featured in many of the marketing campaigns planned this year and is expected to become part of the HyperX 2019 We’re All Gamers campaign, which includes music, sports and esports ambassadors and their illustrated gaming personas.

"With our quality gaming gear, we have managed to secure some of the world’s most high-profile gaming enthusiasts and we couldn’t be more excited to have Marco join the HyperX team,” said Daniel Kelley, HyperX director corporate marketing. "We aim to appeal to all gamers regardless of platform. Whether you play on PC, console or mobile, HyperX has the products to help gamers reach their full potential.”
