RTX 2017 – Day 1 Recap

Day 1 of the Rooster Teeth Expo in Austin just wrapped up! When the doors to the expo hall opened at noon, we welcomed attendees at Booth 401 with new Pit People PVP arcade cabinets and a whole row of Chonku Chonku machines with newly blind-boxed merch.

In our Chonku Chonku machines, we’ve got mini knight figurines, keychains, and even all new patches! Our Gift Shop also has a select variety of t-shirt designs and we’ve got the Pit People Plushies.

At 2PM, we started our first round of Pit People PVP Challenges. All of the 1v1 matches were held between 2PM-5PM at our booth for Day 1. Many players joined, but two fighters stood out the most:

LAELAPS7 – the grand prize winner on Day 1 of RTX Austin 2017. That’s 3 battles won in a row!
