5-hour Energy® has served up industry-leading energy shots for years, first releasing its flagship product in 2004. Since that time, the company has taken an innovative, proactive approach to customizing energy shots for different demographics, from late-night runners and hip hop fans to those with an appetite for spicy tacos.
In recent years, 5-hour Energy® has closely followed the popularity and culture of online gaming, which brings people from around the world together to compete in marathon gaming sessions. Recognizing that dedicated gamers often battle late into the night, the company understands the essential utility of an energy shot that can help keep players sharp and competitive, no matter the hour. That’s why 5-hour Energy® has released a unique line of Gamer Shots.
Gamer Shots and Merch
Designed with the dedicated gamer in mind, 5-hour Energy’s® Gamer Shots feature custom graphics and a range of delicious flavors, including Rocket Raspberry, Pineapple Charge, Apple Bash, and Ultimate Citrus. Containing the same dependable energy formula that has made 5-hour Energy® a must-have for any late-night party or event, these custom shots are packaged in bottles with bright, vibrant gamer-inspired designs. That makes them useful, stylish, and portable—the perfect accessory for any LAN party, gaming tournament, or convention. For extra variety, Gamer Shots are also available in a 12-count variety pack that features multiple shots of three different flavors: Rocket Raspberry, Pineapple Charge, and Apple Bash. None of the Gamer Shots need to be refrigerated, so they can be stashed next to a gaming rig for an easy, mid-game boost.
In addition, 5-hour Energy® has released a line of Gamer Shot merchandise so players can rep their favorite shots while destroying the competition online. These include the 5-hour Energy® Gamer Hoodie, 5-hour Energy® Gamer Hat, and 5-hour Energy® Gamer T-shirt, all of which feature the shots’ dedicated VR gamer graphic.
Exciting New Look, Same Dependable Energy
Gamer Shots contain the same trusted, low-calorie formula that has been energizing 5-hour Energy® customers for years. They provide 230 mg of caffeine (the same amount as a 12-ounce cup of coffee), plus 40 mg of niacin, 40 mg of vitamin B6 (in the form of pyridoxine hydrochloride), and 500 mcg of vitamin B12 (in the form of cyanocobalamin). Better still, Gamer Shots are custom-built to provide a blast of energy in a matter of minutes—and without sugar or carbs, there’s no crash hours later. The company’s targeted energy blend combines the 230 mg of caffeine with taurine, glucuronic acid, malic acid, N-acetyl L-tyrosine, and L-phenylalanine, while the tasty flavors are supported with ingredients such as water, sucralose, natural and artificial
flavors, potassium sorbate, sodium benzoate, and EDTA to maintain freshness. This potent combination of caffeine, vitamins, and amino acids provides the body with natural energy and keeps grogginess at bay for hours.
5-hour Energy’s® proven formula has been supporting customers for decades, delivering the energy needed to get through hectic days of work, study for important tests, safely navigate busy schedules, and keep parties rocking all night long. The release of 5-hour Energy® Gamer Shots takes this dependable energy and packages it specifically for fans of online gaming, helping them connect with friends and take on competitors all around the world, whether it’s 2 p.m. or 2 a.m. Like all 5-hour Energy® shots, Gamer Shots go down in seconds, with no chaser necessary. They kick in within minutes and provide hours of lasting energy, supporting even the longest gaming sessions and all-night battles.
Whether it’s an RPG, battle royale, platformer, or first-person shooter, 5-hour Energy’s® Gamer Shots provide the advantage that players need to stay on top of their game
