HyperX previously announced the debut of its first Vtuber Himura Kuraudo, also known as Kura.

HyperX’s First Vtuber

Vtubing originated in Japan in the mid-2010s and grew in popularity in early 202 during the pandemic. HyperX understands the importance of this community and the positive impact it has made for online content creators.

The digital world has provided a safe space for creators to build confidence, embrace their inner selves and show creativity through their own avatars. The idea and creation of Kura is a direct reflection of the company’s efforts to embrace gamers.

Himura Kuraudo - HyperX VTuber

I’m excited to work with HyperX and be a part of their growing family. To be brought into this space of immense creativity and uniqueness with my very own persona created in such an authentic way is truly humbling. I’m thrilled to be a part of an organization that values inclusivity and aims to make a positive impact on others and look forward to collaborating with others and connecting with fans on my journey.”

Kura, HyperX Vtuber

The tech company brought in several independent artists to help create Kura including well-known illustrator and designer Rosuuri and freelance group Iron Vertex. The latter took the lead in rigging the model illustration to bring the Vtuber to life with a variety of animated facial expressions and movement details.

Additionally, the romaji pronunciation of the name Kuraudo is “cloud” in reference to the company’s first notable headset, Cloud. Kura’s last name “Himura” means “dark red, scarlet” and “town, village” which correlates with the brand’s colors and humble beginnings.

Kuta will embody the spirit of the company’s “We’re All Gamers” tagline through the content she creates.

Catch Kura on the official HyperX Twitch channel on Wednesdays at 11 AM PST.
