BOTH SERIES TO BE FILMED LIVE FROM FAZE CLAN'S BRAND-NEW CONTENT STUDIO IN THE COMPANY'S NEW WAREHOUSE IN THE HEART OF HOLLYWOOD

LOS ANGELES, April 6, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, FaZe Clan, Inc. ("FaZe Clan"), the lifestyle and media platform rooted in gaming and youth culture, announces a new content and digital programming slate with two groundbreaking livestream series developed specifically for and by Gen Z: unFaZed featuring a recurring ensemble cast and hosted by special guests to be announced and FaZe1: The Warehouse both airing on twitch.tv/faze.

Starting in May, the organization with a combined social following of over 500 million is bringing Twitch communities a seamless blend of tried-and-true formats with a creative approach that screams internet culture. Both original series are being filmed at FaZe Clan's brand-new state-of-the-art content studio in the company's new warehouse in the heart of Hollywood, CA–the ultimate playground for internet kids.

FaZe Clan is creating a new breed of programming tailor made for Gen Z. Helmed by EVP and Head of Content Bill McCullough [11-time Emmy winner formerly at the NFL, HBO, GoPro] and VP of Development, Nic Gibbs [formerly at the NFL and theAudience], FaZe Clan is compiling a unique set of media talent to deliver their slate. They've tapped top-tier showrunners Scott Tomlinson [Tosh.0, The Andy Dick Show] for unFaZed and Peter Tartaglia [Big Brother, Real Housewives] for FaZe1: The Warehouse, and production companies Kids at Play and Mission Control Media to join their in-house team of young executives who live and breathe internet culture to flip content and traditional consumption behavior on its head.

"The Gen Z audience is incredibly unique- they are smart, savvy, and really know what they want. At FaZe we are developing original programming that starts with that knowledge and puts Gen Z at the center of our creative," says Bill McCullough, EVP and Head of Content at FaZe Clan. "With young pioneers from the internet and gaming communities as our creative compass, we can utilize our industry experience to push the boundaries and build franchises that stick with young audiences on emerging platforms and beyond."

unFaZed is the first-ever variety franchise born out of internet culture. Launching on twitch.tv/faze on June 2nd, the series will be livestreamed every Thursday at 3pm PST for three to four hours featuring a collection of rotating and interchangeable segments, all airing LIVE with some scripted and many unscripted. Anchored by a special guest host and recurring ensemble cast, the show will star some of the most culturally relevant, well-known creators from the internet community (FaZe members, streamers, YouTubers, social media stars). Each week, the rotating group of internet celebrities will be joined by major players from the world of traditional entertainment, including top-tier actors, musicians, athletes and more. unFaZed is executive produced by FaZe Clan's Bill McCullough, Nic Gibbs and Spencer Sherman, led by showrunner Scott Tomlinson and produced in partnership with Kids at Play with Jason Berger and Amy Laslett serving as executive producers.

Prior to the June 2nd premiere of unFaZed, FaZe Clan will launch FaZe1: The Warehouse, the first-ever live reality competition series that will stream 24 hours a day for 15 consecutive days starting May 5th on twitch.tv/faze. FaZe1: The Warehouse will give fans an uncensored, unedited and radically transparent look into the lives of the top 20 contestants competing in FaZe Clan's global recruitment challenge "FaZe1, Powered by MoonPay." After 15 days, the stream will go dark and a few days later on May 22nd, the entire challenge will culminate in a live finale event where FaZe Clan will name their ultimate recruit. That person will have the opportunity to become a member of FaZe Clan with a signing bonus of $1 million in cryptocurrency from MoonPay, as well as a $250,000 sponsorship brand deal and a Nissan GT-R. FaZe1: The Warehouse is executive produced by FaZe Clan's Bill McCullough, Nic Gibbs and Spencer Sherman, led by showrunner Pete Tartaglia and produced in partnership with Mission Control Media with Michael Agbabian and Dwight D. Smith serving as executive producers.

"The launch of these two series marks a new milestone for FaZe Clan. We've always been a content-first organization and are excited to raise the bar with this new slate and first-of-its-kind programming created specifically for Gen Z," says Lee Trink, CEO and Co-Founder, FaZe Clan. "FaZe Clan has long pioneered gaming content and actually created the first content house — so we are proud to lead the charge once again from our new studio in the FaZe Warehouse. This is just another new beginning, and we are excited for the fans to see what's ahead."

unFaZed and FaZe1: The Warehouse will come on the heels of the very successful weekly livestream series Road to FaZe1 hosted by FaZe Apex, FaZe CBass and FaZe Faxuty, which has served as the main point of communication with fans throughout the "FaZe1, Powered by MoonPay" competition. Since its start date in January, Road to FaZe1 has already garnered over 74.3 million impressions across social media platforms and Twitch/YouTube.
