GIANTX Gaming and Samsung UK Unite for EGX Comic Con 2024

The two brands will work together to showcase premium product lines and Samsung’s commitment to gaming over the course of a busy gaming calendar in 2024

London, UK.  October 17, 2024 –  Today, GIANTX, is excited to announce its collaboration with electronics manufacturer Samsung, set to make a mark on the gaming world with a uniquely tasteful collaboration at the first ever EGX Comic Con event in October in London. This activation stands as a testament to the synergy between two brands, driven by their shared commitment to enhancing gamer experiences and shaping the future of interactive entertainment.

Taglined as “ONE TAP”, the campaign encapsulates the spirit of the collaboration – the ease and efficiency of Samsung’s gaming experience delivered through Samsung Gaming Hub*, emphasising that everything a gamer needs is available at their fingertips. Coupled with referencing the term for a perfect shot in gaming – a single, precise move that hits the target.

This dual meaning reinforces the idea that Samsung’s gaming platform offers both precision and ease, making it the ultimate destination for gamers seeking a seamless and high-quality experience.

Samsung Gaming Hub is a game streaming service that has been built into all Samsung gaming TVs and monitors as standard since 2022^[1]. It provides quick and easy access to more than 3,000 top gaming titles from Xbox^[2] NVIDIA GeForce NOW and other popular streaming services. It’s all cloud based so there are no downloads, no storage limits, and no console or PC is required – simply stream and play.

Plus there are added features in certain Samsung TV models such as AI Auto Game Mode that recognises the genre of the game you are playing and then adjusts the settings accordingly for the ultimate immersive gaming experience and ultra smooth motion.

The booth will include:

• Multiple Samsung TV and mobile gaming stations
• Sonic themed space
• Play to win activities
• Prizes worth up to £3000
• Red Bull refreshments

The brands will work together to showcase Samsung’s premium product lines across its Odyssey Gaming range of gaming monitors and its innovative NEO QLED  TV range that both have Samsung’s Gaming Hub built in, as well as a selection of the newest models across the brand’s mobile and tablet ranges.
