This new partnership is a game-changer. It shows just how seriously big businesses are taking the gaming industry in South Africa. “King Price joining us on this new adventure is going to pave a new way for South African esports”, says Mettlestate’s community manager, Carly Twaddle. “It shows that big companies can enter the space and help it grow. Gamers can finally see that these companies want to work not only with them, but for them. King Price is taking a huge step that will only benefit all parties involved, particularly the gamers. They
finally have an insurer who is taking them seriously and wants to not only protect their gaming assets, but also help them and their community grow.”
