Team Vitality Announces Blacklyte as New Official Gaming Chair Partner

(AsiaGameHub) –   Team Vitality has formed a strategic alliance with Blacklyte, a premier name in the esports and immersive gaming market.

The duo intends to elevate performance benchmarks by crafting optimized gaming settings and outfitting the entirety of the club’s teams and venues.

Anchored in innovation, this partnership involves the co-creation of a new line of chairs and desks engineered specifically to improve the user experience and sustain top-tier performance.

Performance and innovation form the foundation of the partnership

Blacklyte’s offerings, which include gaming chairs and desks, are built with a player-centric philosophy. Celebrated for their quality and inventiveness, these items allow athletes to fine-tune their training sessions and gameplay.

These configurations will be deployed across every Team Vitality roster, covering CS2, Rocket League, VALORANT, LEC, LFL, Rising Bees, Tekken 8, Teamfight Tactics, and Age of Empires II. The objective is distinct: to deliver peak comfort that aids performance for each squad. Furthermore, these gaming chairs will be set up in all the organization’s physical sites, from its Paris HQ (V.Hive) to its locations at the Stade de France and Berlin.

This venture is set to hit a significant new phase in the second half of 2026 with the release of an exclusive co-branded Blacklyte x Team Vitality range. Created to embody Team Vitality’s identity, it reflects the new partner’s core conviction, providing value beyond standard gaming furniture. It offers gamers the chance to create a custom setup that transcends basic gear, allowing for personal expression. This underscores the idea that success in esports depends not just on in-game talent, but also on the caliber of the players’ environment.

“We are thrilled to partner with Blacklyte and welcome them into the Team Vitality family. This collaboration arrives at a pivotal moment for the club in Counter-Strike, coinciding with the debut of new marquee rosters, and broadly mirrors our goal to continuously elevate our standards in performance and innovation. Jointly, we are constructing environments that empower our players to realize their full potential at the highest level,” states Vas Roberts, Co-CEO of Team Vitality.

“Team Vitality is among the most renowned entities in global esports, and we are eager to collaborate to introduce this new generation of gaming furniture. We aim to develop a fresh gaming ecosystem that enables Team Vitality athletes to practice in setups that boost their playstyles while remaining supportive and stylish,” remarks Blacklyte CEO Alex Liu. “Blacklyte has consistently led the charge in redefining performance gear in esports, and this alliance is a logical next step in that journey.”

An esports partner with deep roots in the industry

By aligning with Team Vitality, Blacklyte seeks to enhance its brand recognition, weave itself into the performance habits of players, and solidify its position as a standard for professional-grade comfort and assistance. The two brands will also collaborate on activations meant to boost fan engagement and conversion.

Constructed with a long-term outlook, this partnership will back the club’s key upcoming competitive milestones, such as future global professional tournaments and events. It demonstrates a shared goal to connect with the fanbase and foster a unified environment that links players, creators, and fans.
