Turtle Beach Taps Gaming Market in France With Influencers

Recently, Turtle Beach Corporation HEAR announced its partnerships with two French gaming influencers — Skyrroz and Inoxtag. The strategic decision will certainly boost the San Diego, CA-based audio technology company along with ROCCAT’s growing presence in the French gaming market.

Skyrroz and Inoxtag have a large fan audience across Call of Duty and Fortnite. They also have the latest gear from Turtle Beach and ROCCAT, which will drive growth of the brands in the market. Skyrroz is one of the recognized faces in the Call of Duty scene in France. The content creator currently uses a range of Turtle Beach headsets. This includes the Elite Pro 2, a gaming headset designed for competitive console gamers, and the popular Elite Atlas.

Inoxtag is a major player in the country’s gaming scene. Known for his Fortnite content, Inoxtag has been using ROCCAT products for a year. He is currently using the Kain 200 AIMO wireless mouse and the Vulcan 121 AIMO keyboard. These two gaming accessories have been much-admired by gaming and tech media.

On Jun 16, Turtle Beach raised its revenue outlook for the second quarter of 2020, thanks to strong demand for its products and substantial increases in product supply. The company aims to expand from being the leader in console gaming headsets into becoming a top gaming accessory brand for all platforms.

It is positioned to benefit from a solid product performance combined with market share gains, supported by innovation, strong brand and retail partnerships. The combination of increased gaming activity, distance learning and work-from-home trends should continue to drive higher demand for headsets.

In 2019, the company acquired ROCCAT, a Germany-based PC peripherals maker, for $15.6 million in cash. ROCCAT’s expertise has accelerated Turtle Beach’s expansion into the $1.6-billion PC gaming headset market, and $1.3-billion PC gaming keyboard and mice market. Further, the enhanced distribution channels across North America, Europe and Asia enabled Turtle Beach to offer its lineup of products to more gamers around the world.
