Outright Games

Spearheading UNICEF UK’s First Official Video Game Partnership

As the world’s leading kids’ games publisher, we curated an agreement for Outright Games to become UNICEF UK’s first official video game industry partner, worth over £200k a year for the charity.

As the global agency for all of Outright Games’ communications, we sought the opportunity to further establish the company’s position as the world’s leader in kids’ video games. We identified UNICEF as the perfect partner to create an impactful campaign that would accelerate Outright’s CSR strategy in ways that had not been seen before.

After introducing the two parties, we developed the overarching comms messaging and media narrative which resulted in us being able to position the partnership as UNICEF UK’s first ever within the video games industry. In the lead up to the campaign’s launch we were solely responsible for creating and executing a multi faceted media campaign that resulted in Outright Games’ biggest B2B comms success story in the company’s history.

Working directly with the charity and Outright Games to ensure complex messaging was expertly crafted to best suit each media sector and global territory, expanding the roster of media outlets that typically cover Outright Games including the likes of Forbes, License Global and Venturebeat.

By bringing about this high level partnership, and also delivering a best in class media campaign off the back of it, we helped elevate Outright Games profile on the global market not only in the world of video games but across a much wider audience than had ever been seen before.
