The gaming gear used by Gyeonggi Inate, the winner of the domestic battle royale esports tournament "Eternal Return Masters Season 9," in official matches is garnering continued industry interest. This is because all players on the team, who demonstrated consistent performance in the tournament finals, used gear from the same brand.

According to SteelSeries on February 4, 2026, the company provided gaming gear to Gyeonggi Innate, the winning team of Eternal Return Masters Season 9. Gyeonggi Innate won the finals of the Eternal Return Masters Season 9 held at the Busan Esports Stadium on January 23-24, and used SteelSeries gear during the event.

Founded in 2024, Gyeonggi Innate is Gyeonggi Province's representative esports team, focusing on the Eternal Return event. This season's finals victory marks the team's first major achievement since its founding.

SteelSeries has been supporting global esports teams, and has also provided gaming gear to the entire Eternal Return team since its inception. The company explained that this collaboration is focused on increasing stability and consistency in the competitive environment.

In the finals, DaSoo (Choi Kyung-ryeol) and JINho (Jeong Jin-ho) used wireless headsets, keyboards, and mice, while ZeroJin (Yoon Young-jin) and ing9 (Jeon In-guk) also used wireless headsets, mice, and mouse pads from the same brand. The players reportedly maintained their equipment throughout the extended matches.

Lee Hye-kyung, CEO of SteelSeries Korea, congratulated Gyeonggi Inate on their Season 9 victory and expressed her commitment to continuously supporting an environment where players can focus on their performance through collaboration with esports.
