Syntech, the exclusive distributors of Sparkfox and Redragon in South Africa, are once again stepping up to support the local gaming and esports community. Craig Nowitz, Managing Director from Syntech, explained that, “Syntech is committed to aiding the growth and development of the esports scene in South Africa. We’re also equally passionate about building and engaging with the local gaming community. Redragon and Sparkfox are inclusive brands that resonate with all South African gamers, whether they’re casual, amateur, or professional players. That’s why it made a lot of sense for us to partner with ACGL as key sponsors for this Fortnite tournament.”

Today is a very special day as it marks the beginning of Chapter 2 for the Fortnite Series and the announcement of the #StreamerRoyale tournament, powered by Sparkfox and Redragon,” added Nick Holden, director of ACGL. “We are extremely excited to be working alongside Syntech to cater to a community that has become a big part of the ACGL family.”
