FREMONT, CALIF., USA – June 17th, 2013 - Patriot, a global pioneer in high-performance memory, NAND flash, storage, and mobile accessories today announces an exclusive partnership with Meteor Entertainment, a leading publisher of online games, to launch a one-of-a-kind Supersonic RAGE XT promotion bundle with Meteor’s online mech action game, HAWKEN™. This valued-added bundle pairs the ultra-fast 64GB USB 3.0 Supersonic RAGE XT flash drive with a game changing 7-day HAWKEN Double XP Boost for the extremely popular multiplayer mech combat video game.

Providing the enhanced transfer speeds of USB 3.0 in an extra tough rubberized housing, the Patriot Supersonic Rage XT is the perfect solution for those looking for a compact design that doesn’t compromise performance. The Supersonic Rage XT comes with a custom slide to connect design that provides best in class protection from wear and tear.

HAWKEN™ is an online action game that allows players to jump into the cockpit of customizable giant mechs and battle it out for online supremacy in a variety of game modes and arenas. This special Double XP Boost pack bundle will grant players the ability to level up faster, unlocking new abilities and technologies for total domination on the battlefield.

“The Patriot Supersonic RAGE XT epitomizes excellent USB 3.0 performance, durability, and portability,” said Meng Jay Choo, Product Manager at Patriot. “Meteor’s HAWKEN is one of the fastest multiplayer games on the planet. Partnering the two products to create this exclusive bundle offers game centric consumers something truly special.”

“Patriot is creating gamer-focused technology that makes our game look great and play at high frame rates, two things that our audience demands,” said Paul Loynd, Producer, HAWKEN. “Combining an XP boost with the Rage XT drive means that not only will new HAWKEN pilots level up more quickly, but they’ll also be in the game and playing that much faster.”
