Limited FESTIVAL PACK available soon!
Attention, attention the FESTIVAL PACK will be available on 18.06.2025 from 15:00!
Look forward to gamescom 2025 and immortalize your gamername as part of the 2025 festival line-up on the T-shirt. Together with gamers from the community, you will form the back of the shirt and secure a limited edition festival bracelet.
This year you can even get the FESTIVAL PACK in two different versions! We offer you a black or a white version.
But be careful, speed wins! Because the rule is: first come, first served. The order in the line-up is determined by the order time. The earlier you order, the more likely you are to secure a place as a headliner.
*The promotion runs from 18.06.2025 15h to 26.06.2025 23:59h or until sold out. Due to the special production, the goods will probably only be available two weeks after the end of the promotion.

Especially during Pride Month, as part of #TeamDiversity, we set an example for more visibility and equality. That's why we are particularly pleased to be able to support a charitable foundation again this year.
Get the #LOVEISLOVE T-shirt in black or white now and also get the exclusive PRIDE pin with glitter. With every purchase of one of our limited edition LOVEISLOVE T-shirts, we donate €5 to the Du bist gut! Foundation - and set a strong signal for diversity and togetherness. 💖
