Galaxy Racer and Sunburn come together to create a unique blend of music and esports for the first time at the Valorant India Invitational in Hyderabad
Galaxy Racer, one of the biggest transmedia gaming organizations in the world, has joined hands with Asia’s premiere EDM festival Sunburn to create an unique blend of music and esports for gamers from across the country as the premier Music Carnival comes on board as the official venue partner of the Valorant India Invitational which will kick start in Hyderabad from November 18-20, 2022.
This is the first-ever international Valorant tournament that is taking place in the whole of South Asia and India in which the biggest names from the Valorant world such as Paper Rex, Team Secret, RRQ, etc. as well as some of the top Indian stars will be competing under one roof.
“Music and gaming are two core components that have an immense influence on GenZ and since merging them has yielded huge success globally, we wanted to en-cash the untapped opportunity in India. Having Sunburn as the official venue partner fortifies Valorant India Invitational and it further proliferates the impact that this tournament can have on Indian gamers. This partnership fulfils our aim of blending premiere Esports events with music festivals as the goals and vision of both companies align perfectly in dishing out an experience alongside competitive gaming. Fans will have multiple options of either attending just the finals or a combined experience of both the finals and the music festival. We are looking forward to this remarkable blend and hope gamers and music aficionados can equally enjoy the experiences,” said Siddharth Ravishankar, Chief Gaming Officer, Galaxy Racer.
Sunburn is one of the largest music festivals in the world and this association with Galaxy Racer is their very first venture in the Esports industry. This first-of-its-kind partnership will help esports profoundly as it gets influenced by the evolving narrative of pop culture alongside competitive gaming.
An exclusive music video of the tournament will be revealed as the tournament will culminate with well-known DJ Snake curating some breathtaking music on the night of the Sunburn.
“Collaborating with Galaxy Racer gives us an opportunity to enter the Gaming industry, which is on the rise in India. Music is a part of gaming & esports and this is just the right synergy for us. We are always on the lookout for unique distribution and this is one of them to engage our fans with this unique blend.” said Karan Singh, CEO, Spacebound.
The LAN Finals will be a three-day affair with the Grand Finals scheduled to take place on November 20 at the GMR Arena in Hyderabad where thousands of fans will witness the nail-biting competition between the finalists who battle for a whopping sum of USD 100,000.
According to the 2021 Deloitte’s Digital Media Trends Fall Pulse Survey, 42% of GenZ gamers listened to music other than gaming ones while playing whereas 22% of the sample size shared music recommendations while gaming with other online gamers and 11% had shown the trend of attending live music concerts inside a gaming world venue.
These statistics are a testament to the significant connection that gaming and music have, making Galaxy Racer’s vision of blending the adrenaline rush of an Esports LAN event with the exhilarating and exciting experience of music and setting a strong blueprint for initiating a new chapter in the history of gaming and hosting tournaments in the country.

Push Gaming redefines its portfolio, unveiling new game categories and sub-brand for extended player reach
B2B gaming supplier Push Gaming is embarking on a major strategic expansion, introducing two new game categories and a new sub-brand to scale its operations and significantly diversify its game portfolio while maintaining its reputation for high-quality slot experiences. The move aims to attract a wider range of players and secure a substantial market share in key regions.
Known for its premium, quality approach to game design, Push Gaming is broadening its signature style to reach a larger audience while maintaining its commitment to excellence. The new strategy introduces two distinct game categories: Push Originals and Push Actions, which remain within the Push Gaming core brand alongside a new sub-studio, Reel Hot Games.
Push Originals will continue to represent signature Push Gaming titles, targeting slot enthusiasts with complex mechanics and high-volatility gameplay. This category offers thrilling slot experiences, continually pushing boundaries with innovative features and the potential for substantial wins.
Push Actions is an entirely new category aimed at casual players who enjoy fun and easily understandable games. These titles deliver fast-paced, high-energy gameplay with simple mechanics and popular themes. Recent releases, including 3 Magic Pots and 10 Flaming Bisons, have been examples of the provider flexing its creativity with games that are a slight departure from its previous styles, and these and forthcoming games of the same style now officially have a home.
Reel Hot Games is poised to bring its own unique identity to Push Gaming’s portfolio with a classic slots experience. This sub-brand caters to players who appreciate the nostalgia of land-based casino games, featuring iconic symbols and themes enhanced by modern mechanics. It is particularly targeted at markets where classic games are highly popular, such as the regulated US states, Romania, Greece, the Netherlands, Bulgaria and certain Latin American markets.
The successful March 2025 launch of Power Vault in the UK and Brazil was the first unofficial example of a Reel Hot Games release, while the first game to officially launch under this new direction will be Bamboo Ways under the Push Originals category. In addition to all new releases, previous Push Gaming titles will be recategorised accordingly.
George Fil, Director of Product Strategy at Push Gaming, said: “This is a pivotal moment for Push Gaming. Our new direction is a clear commitment to scaling at pace while staying true to the quality that has defined us thus far.
“By diversifying our portfolio with these new categories and sub-brand, we’re not just expanding our offerings, we’re creating ultimate gaming experiences leveraging our heritage in content standards for a broader audience and driving significant growth for our partners in key markets.
“We are laser-focused on pushing boundaries to deliver products that benefit everyone.”
