MANILA, PHILIPPINES — TikTok, the leading destination for short-form mobile video, is the official platform partner for the upcoming Gamescom Asia 2021 in Singapore this October. Creators Aya Ezmaria and Archer Perez will speak about their journey in gaming, share interesting experiences as gamers, and participate in a Q&A session for creators at the event’s Entertainment Zone, live on TikTok, on October 17, 5:00 PM PST at https://www.tiktok.com/@gamescomasia.
Gamescom Asia is the first satellite event of gamescom, the world’s biggest computer and video game festival. Open to top developers, publishers, creators, and esports organizers worldwide, the conference serves as a platform for Southeast Asian game developers to explore global partnerships, as well as a hub where publishers from around the world can look for the next best thing in Gaming.
Get To Know The Creators
Archer Perez’ gaming roots go back to his start as a shoutcaster five years ago. A man with big dreams, Archer worked hard to get to where he is today. Now a full-time content creator, and one of the most influential Axie streamers on TikTok, he says that gaming has become a way of life for him, especially since playing every day is part of his job.
Archer has been sharing content on TikTok for almost a year now, and he has fallen in love with the platform because of its community, as well as the discoverability that it offers. According to Archer, “TikTok is a stage where the spotlight is on you, no matter if you are new to the platform!”
Aya Ezmaria is a Gaming streamer and content creator, as well as a host and voice-over artist. She credits her introduction to the world of Gaming to her father, who bought their family different consoles when she was a kid, from Family Computer to Playstation 1 to Dreamcast. Eventually, Aya transitioned to PC gaming and now plays almost daily while streaming, and off-streaming with her friends and siblings. She enjoys classic Japanese Role-Playing Games (JRPGs), survival horror games, and story-rich games like Beyond Two Souls, The Evil Within, Resident Evil, and Final Fantasy, and recently started getting into racing games.
After a friend encouraged her to sign up, Aya joined TikTok almost a year ago. She believes that, while it was known for dancing and lip-syncing, she now feels that it is the time to raise the flag of gamers on the platform, and let the community learn how awesome games are, particularly those that they have never tried or heard about.
