immortal Fighting Game Division Unveils Custom-Made Player Jackets — Beyond 'Combat Gear'

The professional gaming team immortal's fighting game division has announced the creation of new custom-made jackets for its players. This project was realized as part of an ongoing collaboration with dual_mode, a creative brand from Ehime that has previously handled the team's uniform production. While the team has historically positioned its uniforms as 'combat gear,' the expanding esports scene has highlighted the need for 'formal wear' for players to wear at official events. Thus, these full-order jackets were produced to express the team's presence and the individual charm of the players outside of active competition. In the design process, an initial idea to cover a simple jacket entirely with Japanese-style embroidery was considered. However, to prioritize comfort and ease of movement, the embroidery was limited to the sleeves. The color 'Vermillion' (Shu) was chosen for its combination of strength and dignity, aiming to balance visual impact with practicality. Furthermore, the most significant feature of this jacket is the artwork on the back, featuring creatures chosen to represent each player's image. Motifs such as dragons and peacocks are used to symbolize each player's personality and playstyle. This back design was particularly emphasized because the back is what spectators and opponents see most often in tournament venues. immortal's fighting game division will continue to strive not only for competitive excellence but also to expand the possibilities of culture and expression in esports. We hope these jackets will become a new symbol for our players. We are an organization dedicated to supporting esports players and artists who strive for the pinnacle of the competitive scene while balancing work and gaming, based on the concept of 'everlasting dual-career and an unquenchable thirst for the ultimate strength.' - Team Name: immortal (Abbreviation: IMM) - Areas of Activity: Participation in various game tournaments, regional esports events, and regional revitalization events. - Goals: Showcasing the dual-career pro-gamer lifestyle, energizing the competitive scene through gameplay, and conveying the quest for victory through activities.
