LOS ANGELES, CA (June 30, 2022) - FaZe Clan, Inc.

“We are excited to bring in FaZe Ronaldo and welcome him into the FaZe family,” said FaZe Rain. “We've been eyeing his content for some time with his ability to capture the attention of his audience not only with his gaming content but also his crazy sense of humor and who he is as a person. Ronaldo embodies everything we’re looking for when bringing new talent to the team and I know our fans will be excited for this natural fit.”

“I’ve looked up to FaZe Clan for as long as I can remember so to be here now as an official member and working alongside everyone is an incredible feeling,” said FaZe Ronaldo. “I can’t wait to bring my talents and energy into the mix as a member of the FaZe Clan family.”

The former Fortnite pro and popular online streamer caught the attention of FaZe Clan with his outrageous sense of humor and his ability to transform any moment into gold when livestreaming. Born in South New Jersey, Ronaldo first started playing video games with his older brother. At age 15, cash strapped and knowing he needed a PC to take his gaming to the next level, the extra savvy Ronaldo bought and resold sneakers to make the cash needed to buy his first “not so great” computer. His motivation quickly turned into winning tournaments, giving him the money and tools needed to become the streaming personality he has grown into today.

FaZe Ronaldo touts a number of competitive accolades during his time as a professional gamer, including a win at the Fortnite Champion Series in 2019. Now with a following of almost 7M across social platforms including Instagram, Twitter, Twitch, YouTube and TikTok, FaZe Ronaldo has used his charming personality and “professional loud man” style to launch himself to the top of the streaming world and by joining FaZe Clan he hopes to become a force in other areas of entertainment beyond gaming.
