Infinix showcased its immersive GT gaming ecosystem during an exclusive evening filled with friendly matches, hands-on product trials, and networking. The event highlighted everything from precision controllers to expansive big-screen gameplay.
True gaming extends far beyond the hardware itself; it thrives on competitive excitement, innovative gameplay, and the community built around a shared passion. This vibrant subculture took center stage at the recent GT NXperience: Media & Fans Gathering. Hosted at the NAOS Esports Arena in DoubleDragon Plaza, Pasay City, the event brought together tech enthusiasts, creators, and gamers to celebrate the evolving landscape of mobile play.
The Infinix Philippines event brought together media representatives, content creators, and the local gaming community to introduce the Infinix GT NX Controller and GT NX Station. The brand demonstrated how its new hardware expands the mobile gaming experience past the smartphone interface via interactive stations and a friendly Fans vs. Media 1v1 tournament.
An Evening Built Around Gaming
Infinix Philippines Public Relations Manager Irish Del Rosario kicked off the event by welcoming attendees. In her opening remarks, she invited guests to get hands-on experience with the new devices, test their skills against fellow players, and bond over their mutual love for the gaming culture.
“Tonight we’re not here just to talk, we’re here to play,” she shared, setting the tone for an event that prioritized interaction and hands-on experiences over presentations alone. “With the GT NX Controller and GT NX Station, we’re taking gaming beyond the usual setup and bringing the experience to a whole new level. From the precision and responsiveness of the GT NX Controller to the GT NX Station’s ability to bring gameplay to bigger screens, we’re giving gamers more ways to play, compete, and enjoy their favorite games. And with our partner game, Blood Strike, players can put these capabilities to the test and experience a more immersive and engaging way to game.”
Driven by this competitive energy, the event transformed into an interactive playground where everyone could join the action. Attendees pushed their skills to the limit using the GT NX Controller and cast their intense Blood Strike matches onto the big screen with the GT NX Station. It was a clear invitation to step past traditional mobile limits and explore a fresh way to play—proving that the absolute best way to appreciate this gear is to jump in and experience it firsthand.
During the product presentation, Infinix Philippines Community Manager Willy Lloyd Cruz unveiled the GT NX Controller and the GT NX Station. He explained how each new peripheral introduces unique, versatile ways for players to experience and elevate their mobile gaming setups.
“The GT NX Controller offers up to 22 hours of playtime and features Split Controller Mode, allowing players to share the experience with friends and family. Meanwhile, the GT NX Station supports screen extension and mirroring for a bigger-display setup, alongside an industry-first built-in TEC cooling system designed to help manage heat during gameplay. Together, the devices offer greater flexibility in how players enjoy games, from precision-focused controls to more immersive experiences on a larger screen.”
Bringing the GT Experience to Blood Strike
In addition, the gathering showcased Infinix’s strategic alliance with Blood Strike, incorporating the fast-paced mobile title into the overall GT NXperience. At the dedicated experience booth in Station 1, participants utilized the GT 50 Pro smartphone alongside the GT NX Controller, demonstrating the synergy between high-performance mobile gaming hardware and tactile, precision controls.
During the hands-on session, attendees witnessed how the GT ecosystem supports intense, high-demand gameplay. The trial effectively demonstrated the synergy between Infinix’s hardware and the favorite titles of the gaming community.
Precision That Makes Every Move Count
In the world of competitive gaming, split-second reactions mean everything. A single delayed input or clunky control setup can instantly break your momentum, particularly when a match demands lightning-fast reflexes and complex multi-button combos.
Over at Station 2, guests got a direct feel for the GT NX Controller through a casual 1v1 BombSquad tournament. The head-to-head matches instantly transformed a standard hardware showcase into an exciting arena that tested the players’ timing, mechanics, and split-second decision-making.
Designed for users prioritizing precise inputs, the Infinix GT NX Controller incorporates a pixel-level FPS touchpad to enhance navigation during intense gameplay. By offering a tactile alternative to standard touchscreen controls, the device streamlines complex mechanical movements and prevents the user’s hands from blocking vital on-screen information.
The matchup provided a practical environment for attendees to evaluate the controller’s responsiveness and features. Because the game required high precision, every critical action demonstrated the device’s potential in a real-world competitive scenario.
Taking Mobile Gaming to the Big Screen
Gaming experiences do not need to be limited to handheld devices. Utilizing a larger display enhances visual clarity during intense sequences and transforms gameplay into a highly collaborative experience, making it ideal for group viewings and local multiplayer gatherings.
This concept truly came alive at Station 3, where the GT NX Station was hooked up to a television for a high-energy Beach Buggy Racing tournament. The large-screen configuration offered players a completely new visual perspective, making it easy to track every sharp turn and drift while drawing in an excited crowd of spectators.
Past simply scaling up the visuals, the GT NX Station highlighted how mobile gaming can transform into a vibrant social event. Moving the gameplay to a massive display bridges the gap between players and spectators, turning a casual session into a shared arena of friendly competition and crowd excitement.
Collectively, the three experiential zones demonstrated the versatility of the GT ecosystem. The setup allowed attendees to seamlessly transition from hands-on device walkarounds to testing high-precision controllers, before finally experiencing full mobile gameplay scaled up onto a larger display.
Celebrating the People Behind the Experience
Popular gaming creators Nami Onuma and Rain Pega dropped by to join the fun, while Chacha Pega kept the energy high as the evening’s host, making the entire gathering feel incredibly vibrant and lively.
The event reached its peak excitement during the GT NXperience 1v1 Challenge, an exhibition tournament pairing four randomly chosen fans against four tech media representatives. Competitors faced off across the interactive zones in high-stakes matches of BombSquad and Beach Buggy Racing. By the end of the final round, the grand champion walked away with the ultimate prize package: an Infinix GT 50 Pro smartphone, a GT NX Controller, and a GT NX Station.
In addition to the gaming activations, the event featured interactive side attractions, including a photobooth and a customizable fidget-clicker experience station. A promotional raffle rewarded attendees with exclusive GT NX apparel, GT Buds 5, the GT Watch 5 Pro, and comprehensive GT NX prize packages comprising the GT 50 Pro smartphone, GT NX Controller, and GT NX Station. Branded Infinix gift bags were distributed to all departing guests.
By uniting media partners, digital creators, and core fans through interactive gameplay, the event successfully celebrated the community and human connections that anchor the GT ecosystem.
A New Way to Experience the GT Ecosystem
Ultimately, the GT NXperience Media & Fans Gathering proved that the GT NX Controller and Station can truly elevate mobile gaming past the smartphone screen. By delivering precision controls, large-screen immersion, and new multiplayer possibilities, the event successfully united media partners, creators, and gaming fans over their shared passion for play.
