Red 5 Studios
Red 5 Studios believes that online games and persistent worlds are the future of video games. They want to transform gaming experience through their own online technologies because the company is bent on innovation – always asking “what’s next?” and “what to create in a future that has free bandwidth, unlimited storage for players, and games powered by supercomputers?”
Red 5 Studios never stops to create not just games but bold new worlds for players to conquer, explore, and have their adventure in. They develop games based on original stories that have compelling characters and input their own art, sound, and code. Red 5 allows its players to live out their heroic alter egos in an alternate universe. At the same time, they enable them to craft their own stories, experience unique moments and journeys while travelling the most immersive worlds they can create.
Custom Flash Drive for Red 5 Studio
Working with their team, we designed and created a custom molded flash drive based on their logo. Like all our custom drives, this one features rich color. Made of pliable PVC, it stands up well to the everyday use of plugging in and uploading data. It feels great in the hand and has an easy to remove, but sturdy cap on the base.
The team at Red 5 Studios explained that this custom flash drive is an important element in their marketing. As they go to trade shows, meet with the Tribe, talk to investors and share their amazing work, they use their custom logo flash drive to get the word out. The logo is an easy call out for people to remember who they are. But it’s more than just a token, each flash drive is pre-loaded with data about the company, including press releases, employee profiles, and other pertinent information – from videos and photos to spreadsheets and documents.

Set in a future earth, the story of Firefall hinges from a starship disaster that unleashed a colossal amount of energy that envelopes and wipes out most of the Earth. This massive energy story, referred to as the Melding, produced hostile creatures who call themselves the Chosen. Players of Firefall must band together, create armies, and collect resources to craft their own weapons and vehicles to fight back and destroy the Chosen. Firefall is a fast paced combat and MMO. It is also said to be the largest co-op shooter ever created.
