Xbox (@Xbox) and Trapstar (@TrapstarLondon), the legendary streetwear brand, celebrated their epic collaboration at a unique launch event at the Tate Modern in London. The event was a blend of culture, art, fashion, and gaming, that took guests to a different dimension, with a immersive experience like no other.
The Tate Modern was invaded by an otherworldly space design, setting the stage for physical and digital art installations that showcased the four pillars of the Trapstar | Xbox collaboration. The venue became a new dimension where guests were treated to an unforgettable Forza Motorsport gaming tournament in the presence of a heroic trophy cabinet featuring the limited edition 1/10 Trapstar | Xbox Series S 1TB in Carbon Black.
The Trapstar | Xbox friends and family launch event immersed guests in bespoke installations curated specifically for the collaboration. Guest artworks by Slawn, a prominent member of the Trapstar dynasty and one of the hottest artists globally, were featured. Slawn was commissioned to design two custom pieces incorporating subtle 'T' irongate symbols alongside bespoke artworks from U.S multi-faceted artist Carlos W. Desrosiers and UK Painter Symbol.
A highlight of the evening was an iconic photo installation that guided guests through the most memorable moments of the Trapstar brand movement. The exhibit featured images of Young Thug, Central Cee, and photography from Trapstar's 'WE OUTSIDE' takeovers.
In a nod to its roots, Trapstar designed a bespoke bedroom installation to remind guests of the brand's humble beginnings and where the movement originated. The setup included pizza boxes as a tribute to the brand's early days of trapping garments from custom pizza box packaging, with the original Xbox in the background symbolising the signature of the brand's hustle.
The atmosphere was heightened with a soundtrack provided by a lineup of DJs, building anticipation for the final winner of the gaming tournament. Xbox On host 'Benny Central' presented the winner with the Trapstar customized 1/10 Xbox Series S 1TB in Carbon Black.
The Trapstar | Xbox collaboration launch event at Tate Modern marks a groundbreaking fusion of gaming, fashion, and art, showcasing the creative synergy between these two cultural powerhouses.

Brazillian developer Minimol Games (@minimolgames) and Australian publisher SMG Studio (@smgstudio) revealed an all new Developer Walkthrough showcasing some of the chess-inspired puzzle games that make up Chessarama, ahead of its launch later this year on Xbox and PC.
In Chessarama, the players will be able to enjoy a world of premium minimalist games, unlock collectibles and compete against each other by climbing the leaderboard. The reimagined chess game scenarios include cultivating a farmyard, fighting a dragon and fighting as a legendary Ronin in feudal Japan.
Prepare to reimagine chess as you never have before, with eight single-player variations of the classic board game that will force veteran chess aficionados to rewire their brains while also training new players to think like a chess master!
The Developer Walkthrough sees game designer Luis Júnior and game & UX designer Ana Carolina provide an overview of how Chessarama’s Lady Ronin game works. This feudal Japan-set variation of chess tasks players with guiding Lady Ronin to assassinate the enemy Shogun. Lady Ronin is an immortal character who moves like a Queen, but she can’t slay a unit that’s being guarded by another piece. Instead, she can only push it back. In order to access the enemy, Shogun, you’ll have to face off against enemy Bishops, Rooks, and Queens.
