Sometime last year, the team at Ubisoft Romania challenged us to create some anniversary gifts for them, and we simply couldn’t say no.
Ubisoft is well-known as a global leader in video-game production and publishing. Headquartered in France, they are creators of the original worlds of Assassin's Creed, Far Cry, The Crew or Watch Dogs. In their own words, Ubisoft is “committed to enriching people’s lives with original and memorable entertainment experiences”. Sharing the same values, of excellency and uniqueness, this collab was definitely on point.
Ubisoft Romania has been an important pillar for the local gaming industry since its launch, in 1992. With 1800 employees, the Bucharest Studio is the second largest Ubisoft studio in the world, and is now leading all 5 studios in their East European Hub.
For a team of tech geeks, like the one we have at Meze Audio, pairing up with one of the biggest video game companies was exciting, so when we got their request, we immediately started thinking about customizing options. After some deliberation and a few brainstorming sessions, the Meze 99 Series x Ubisoft pairs came to life – 99 Classics & Neos with specially designed boxes, custom-made headbands branded with the Ubisoft logo, and the same sound the 99 series headphones are well-known for.
At the end of 2020, each of the custom pairs arrived to their rightful owners – Ubisoft talents from their East European Hub, represented by Romania, Ukraine and Serbia.
No doubt that this was one special project, and we can’t wait to see what other collaboration opportunities this new year brings.
Are you one of the lucky ones to receive a custom Ubisoft pair? Don’t hesitate to share your impressions of your Meze 99 Neo or Classics with us!
Here are some Instagram snaps of Ubisoft employees boasting their new gear.
