Tfue announces NFT King of Gaming Collection

Prominent streamer Turner "Tfue" Tenney has announced the NFTfue King of Gaming Collection.

The exclusive NFT collection will celebrate Tfue's reign as one of the world's most notable esports champions, across titles such as Fortnite, Call of Duty, and Minecraft.

The collection will be auctioned exclusively on OpenSea.io, beginning Thursday April 8 at 7pm EST and closing on Saturday April 10 at 7pm EST. You can find more information by visiting NFTfue.com.

Tfue announced the exclusive art series to his 10+ million followers and 12+ million subscribers during his live stream on Tuesday night. To celebrate this historic event, Tfue will host a private gaming stream with all NFTfue King of Gaming NFT holders at a future date.

“This NFT project is something that I have had in the works for a while but right out of the gate, it seemed like a natural fit. Clearly I’ve built my name and my brand in a digital space, and my fans understand and are interested in the world of crypto. I was really hands on with the art direction – wanting to bring a high-level of design to the NFTs that bring characters of me to life. I’m excited to be the first in the gaming space to launch, and am excited to see excitement the drop will generate.”

Tfue personally oversaw the art direction for his animated collection, which showcases him as a character in his favourite games. This was done in partnership with Medium Rare, who are responsible for Super Bowl Champion Rob Gronkowski's $1.75 million NFT success in March.

Together, Tfue and Medium Rare built out the one-of-a-kind collection, which contains:

1-of-1 King of Gaming Showdown NFT Video Fortnite

Fortnite NFT Video: limited to 33 editions available at auction.
Call of Duty NFT Video: limited to 33 editions available at auction.
Minecraft NFT Video: limited to 33 editions available at auction.

Fortnite NFT Bobblehead: limited to 100 editions and available for purchase for 1ETH.
Call of Duty NFT Bobblehead: limited to 100 editions and available for purchase for 1ETH.
Minecraft NFT Bobblehead: limited to 100 editions and available for purchase for 1ETH.

The crown jewel for the collection is the 1-of-1 NFT which combines all three of Tfue's characters into a single work of art. The winner of this NFT will also be given the opportunity to meet Tfue in Tampa, FL for an epic day of streaming, gaming, vlogging, jet skiing and more!

The NFT Bobblehead Collection, limited to 100 editions, will also come with a physical version of the bobbleheads; shipped directly to the winning bidder. These will open for purchase later on Saturday, April 10 at 6pm EST.

“As I on-boarded with the guys from Medium Rare to take this to launch, we saw a huge opportunity for the auction beyond the NFTs themselves. Like they saw with the Rob Gronkowsi NFT drop, bidders are really looking for something exclusive and a way to celebrate the winning bid in real life. With that in mind, we have a couple of opportunities here including custom NFTfue bobble heads that go with that NFT collection. And for my 1 of 1, the winning bidders will also get to spend a day with me in person, doing the things I love from gaming to jet skiing.”

All of Tfue's NFTs will be available for auction on Thursday April 8 at 7pm EST. Bidders must use Ethereum. The auction will not accept credit cards. All editions will be sold to the highest bidder, English auction style.
