Ecommerce business outfit Tactus Group has acquired PC gaming brand Chillblast.
Located in Poole, Dorset, Chillblast is the official PC supplier of Williams eSports and provider of VR technology used in RAF Air Cadet training simulators. It is an Intel Platinum Member and Microsoft Silver OEM Partner.
This is the fourth acquisition by the 2021 Microsoft Device Partner of the Year and follows a £40 million investment from Chrysalis Investments in August.
Tactus Group CEO Scott Brenchley said: “We are building a global technology group with unrivalled expertise in the gaming space. Ultimately, we want to change the way people buy and use technology, so we are investing in brands and platforms that deliver the solutions that customers need.
“Chillblast will be an excellent addition to Tactus and we look forward to welcoming them to the Group.”
