Galaxy Gaming Academy 2023 Gamers and Elevating Experiences
September 11, 2023In an era where gaming has become an integral part of everyday life for digital natives, Samsung is taking a significant step forward with the launch of the Galaxy Gaming Academy. This exciting initiative is set to transform the gaming landscape by nurturing emerging talent and creating a vibrant gaming community that transcends diverse backgrounds.
A Community for All Gamers
The Galaxy Gaming Academy extends an open invitation to gaming enthusiasts throughout the region. Regardless of your level of passion for gaming, this is a platform where you can belong. As a member, you gain exclusive access to a wealth of programs designed to enhance your gaming journey. These include community-bonding activities, educational and training content, and enticing in-game rewards, courtesy of local gaming partners.
A Statistic Worth Noting
The Samsung Southeast Asia and Oceania (SEAO) Gaming Insight Study revealed an astonishing fact: 56% of surveyed gamers indulge in gaming more than a few times a week. This group comprises both Gaming Enthusiasts and Hardcore Gamers who immerse themselves in various gaming-related activities such as watching gaming videos, engaging in gaming discussions within their communities, and staying updated with gaming news.
These findings are in line with the region’s large population of Millennials and Gen Z individuals, who share a deep passion for gaming.
A Community-Driven Approach
In response to these gaming trends, Samsung has meticulously crafted the Galaxy Gaming Academy with a focus on community involvement and collaboration. The content is thoughtfully tailored to engage gamers of all skill levels. Simultaneously, the Academy offers members opportunities to enhance their skills through training and upskilling programs while reaping rewards from their active participation in the community.
Carl Nordenberg, Regional Head of Mobile Experience Business at Samsung Electronics Southeast Asia and Oceania, expressed his excitement, saying, “We believe that gaming should be accessible for everyone and hope to enable more memorable mobile gaming experiences through the Galaxy Gaming Academy.”
A Journey Across Southeast Asia and Oceania
The Galaxy Gaming Academy is set to make its debut in Indonesia, Malaysia, and Singapore, with plans for further expansion across the region. Samsung recently hosted a Galaxy Gaming Academy event, 5G powered by CelcomDigi, from June 9 to 11, 2023, at Galaxy Space. Gamers had the opportunity to experience the formidable power of the Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra during a thrilling gaming tournament.
With its robust processor, long-lasting battery, and vivid Dynamic AMOLED 2X display, the Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra promises the ultimate gaming performance.
