Invincible GG (IGG), a competitive gaming platform and technology company, has announced that it will celebrate the partnership between its Owners Club racing game and the QIPCO British Champions Series, by showcasing its flagship virtual race, the Champions Stakes, on the big screens at Ascot on Saturday.
The Owners Club community, totalling around 10,000 players, has been actively training their AI-powered virtual horses, with the aim of qualifying for the in-game Champions Series Challenge races. The Champions Stakes will be shown as-live on prominent video screens around the various Ascot enclosures just before midday, before the first race on QIPCO British Champions Day.
The partnership between Owners Club and the QIPCO British Champions Series is designed to deliver an interactive experience that converts young sports fans and gaming enthusiasts into horse racing aficionados.
Jonathan Strause, Invincible GG CEO, said, “As race days go, they don't come much bigger than the Flat season-closing QIPCO British Champions Day at Ascot racecourse, and we're delighted to be showcasing Owners Club in all its glory to what should be a full house in the lead up to the first race.
“The Champions Stakes will provide racing fans anywhere near a big screen the thrill of a new kind of live virtual racing, with the key difference that players have true ownership of the AI horses in question, along with control over their training regimen, race tactics, and related breeding strategies.”
IGG will also be hosting an Owners Club party at Ascot. The team will be present to celebrate with the owners of the virtual horses racing in the Champions Stakes, game ambassadors, including Izzy Phillips and Basher Watts, and various other prominent racing and tech figures.
Young racegoers attending through the Club26 and Invades initiatives will be also be welcomed to this event.
