COSTA MESA, Calif. — Aug. 3, 2016 — ZOWIE, BenQ's eSports brand, announced today the launch of the trusted XL series monitors for PC competitors under the ZOWIE name — the first of the product line for the brand. Gamers can expect the reliability and performance from the ZOWIE line that established BenQ as the choice for leagues, tournaments and pros. ZOWIE XL monitors are available in four models with 24- and 27-inch sizes offering varying features to meet the requirements of tournament professionals.

"We are proud to launch our XL series monitors under our eSports brand, ZOWIE,” said Ronald Kim with eSports marketing at BenQ America. "As the official monitor of leagues, tournaments and professional gamers worldwide, it is our focus to continue providing professional tournament-grade equipment to the eSports industry.”

The XL series is purpose-built to provide competitors in Overwatch, and other FPS titles like Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, the ultra-smooth gameplay they require with high refresh rates and lag-free technology. The customizable viewing angle available with the height-adjustable stand as well as Zeroflicker™ and Low Blue Light technologies allows gamers to comfortably practice for the extended hours required to master Overwatch’s 22 hero characters. The series’ picture modes can be customized and saved on the monitors' S-switch for quick access to a player's graphical preferences per map, and the monitors' Black eQualizer increases the visibility in dark scenes for in-game visual clarity.
