Manila, Philippines – 2025 

Zen Gaming Hideout has announced a new partnership with NexGEnt Production aimed at strengthening the tabletop and board gaming scene across Metro Manila. The collaboration seeks to provide more opportunities for gamers, hobbyists, and volunteers to connect through organized events and community-driven initiatives.

As part of the partnership, NexGEnt Production will play a key role in expanding Zen Gaming Hideout’s reach by providing marketing assistance, including the sharing of announcements, digital banners, and efforts to modernize the brand’s identity. The production company will also take charge of developing specialized events dedicated to tabletop and board games, ensuring a wider platform for both casual players and seasoned enthusiasts.

In addition, Zen Gaming Hideout will receive support in mobilizing its volunteer network. NexGEnt Production will help invite and encourage new members of the community to join the NGO, building a stronger base for grassroots events and projects.

“This partnership is a major step forward for us,” said a representative of Zen Gaming Hideout. “With NexGEnt’s expertise in event management and marketing, we can create more engaging activities that will introduce tabletop gaming to new audiences while strengthening the bonds of our current community.”

Tabletop and board gaming has steadily gained popularity in the Philippines, attracting not only long-time players but also new fans interested in strategic, social, and creative forms of play. NexGEnt Production’s involvement is expected to elevate these activities by giving them the same production value and visibility as larger pop-culture events.

The partnership also aligns with NexGEnt Production’s mission to diversify its entertainment portfolio beyond cosplay and conventions, opening up more inclusive spaces for different hobbies and fandoms across the metro.

With this collaboration, both organizations aim to make tabletop gaming a more prominent and accessible part of the local pop-culture landscape, paving the way for future events, tournaments, and community-led initiatives.
