Antec announced its official relationship with video game developer & publisher NCsoft Corporation and its subsequent activity at PAX (Penny Arcade Expo) Prime 2011.

Antec will commence its relationship with NCsoft by opening an online boutique which, in the coming weeks, will let consumers purchase enclosures featuring custom NCsoft artwork from the City of Heroes, Guild Wars, Aion and future franchises.

Antec and NCsoft will team up at PAX Prime August 26th through August 28th, 2011 in Seattle, WA. Antec's booth will be the only locale on the show floor where attendees can demo NCsoft's upcoming City of Heroes Freedom.

Antec will also showcase an enclosures gallery with custom NCsoft artwork as a preview for what attendees can eventually order online. One of these select cases, equipped with hardware from Intel, Zotac, Kingston and Seagate, will be raffled off as a complete gaming PC.

"NCsoft is pleased to team up with Antec to bring our visual imagery from our award-winning line up of MMORPGs to their fans," said Steve Levy, Global Director, Publishing, at NCsoft. "This is a great collaboration that will allow Antec's customers to select a high performance PC enclosure and create a work of art that they will be proud to display."

"We're excited to kick off this new venture with NCsoft and invite our fans to give more personality to their PCs," said Matthew Bosma, Director of Sales at Antec. "It has been great working with NCsoft and we're looking forward to showing off their beautiful artwork to our fans and their fans, too."
