Today, SK Gaming is excited to announce that we have extended our partnership with Western Digital, a leading global data solutions provider, for another year.

In the past twelve months, Western Digital has provided us with its storage solutions - not only in our gaming facilities, but also at our players’ homes and for on the go, allowing them reliable access to their game data anywhere. With the high-performance WD_BLACK products designed specifically for gaming, we’ve achieved the success we strive for here at SK Gaming and will continue to do so.

“We are thrilled that Western Digital felt our partnership has been as successful as we did and we easily reached an agreement to extend it. With the WD_BLACK products on our side, we will continue to equip our players for success and support them in their data needs”, comments Alexander T. Müller, CEO at SK Gaming.

“Our continued support of SK Gaming is testament to an extremely fruitful partnership which has developed. It is great to see that the team is so successful and that WD_BLACK has contributed to their achievements. It is great to see how helpful the products are for SK Gaming and we are very excited about the variety of joint projects we have coming up”, says Ruben Dennenwaldt, senior product marketing manager in EMEA.

The continued collaboration between SK Gaming and Western Digital will result in plenty of activities in the coming months. Our players will frequently visit the WD booth at the Saturn Xperion Arena in Cologne for “Beat the Pro” challenges, meet & greets and giveaways. For the fans who can’t make it to our hometown, we are also planning exclusive online content and raffles through our social media channels.
