RG1 is the Shot in the Arm Your Company Needs

Introducing Ready Gamer One

Analysis paralysis, right? Don’t be frightened by the multitude of options. I’ll help you find the right game(s) to play.

Welcome to RG1, aka Ready Gamer One, the world’s first team-building platform that utilizes the power of video games to transform your work community into a fun and happy place.

I know what you’re thinking.

“Video games? In the workplace?”

Yes. Video games. In the workplace.

Nobody’s been brave enough to do it until now.

If you’re blessed enough to work at a CrazySexyCool video game dev studio, fun startup, or tech giant like Google, then you’re golden because these companies already have fun activities like video games (and other happy, rec-room-esque distractions) in place. But if you fall into the unfortunate 87% of old-school-minded, all-work-and-no-play daily grind houses, you need to keep reading because your saving grace has finally arrived.

Like a video game vaccine, Ready Gamer One injects fun and play into the workday, boosting engagement for employees, partners, and/or teammates. RG1 aims to be the long-term remedy for stagnant work cultures. This is the perfect solution if you’re looking to add a bold, meaningful, social and team-building activity that can challenge and unite your community.

Look at how much fun these hard-working employees are having with this team-building and video game activity. You love to see it.

It’s weird to think of video games as tools, but there’s no reason why they can’t be. Jumping into a round of Fortnite on your computer is no different than jumping into the party games available in your Microsoft Teams and Zoom software. You know those mini-games your manager sometimes shoehorns in at the start of your virtual meetings? What do you think is happening when they make you play those? Yes, it’s a mini-break to have some fun, but what you’re also doing is called team-building.

But what if this type of fun team-building could be more than a quick tech demo and icebreaker at the start of meetings? What if CEOs and managers opened their minds to the benefits of this type of activity and welcomed more time for playing?

What if a certain Microsoft division had a brand with a powerful product that bundled in cloud technology to help deliver the best games to your company? (Games that RG1 endorses.)

Xbox Game Pass is still the best deal in gaming today — and RG1 is a proud user!

Well, eighty-six that last what-if because Microsoft has Team Xbox, who have blessed us with Xbox Game Pass, the Netflix-style, “all-you-can-eat,” gaming subscription service, which has cloud gaming, a feature that lets you play games on devices you already own (no Xbox console required), and RG1 plans to shepherd you through with team-building as the goal.

Imagine you and your team taking time out from the gruelling workday to jump into the fast-paced, fever-dreamy, metaverse-adjacent phenomenon that has become Fortnite.

If that’s too much too fast, you can always ease into gaming by chopping up some ingredients and putting your culinary skills to the ultimate test with the feverishly fun Overcooked — which is an RG1 Must-Play game!

These are the positive, shared, team-building shenanigans RG1 brings to the table, and we’re doing it with beautiful Xbox Cloud Gaming technology.

The games featured above are just two of many accessible multiplayer experiences available to play. There’s a video game to scratch every itch, whether you’re experienced or new to games; Ready Gamer One is the gift that keeps giving. So why not gift your amazing team today?

Legendary game developer Eugene Jarvis said it best:

“The only legitimate use of a computer is to play games.”

It’s time to upgrade. Let RG1 help foster team-building and gamify your working world. Your community could be the better for it.
