From June 19th through the 22nd, the world of Pong of Champions lit up Columbus, Ohio, at the XP Booth during Origins Game Fair 2025. Both the core game and the mobile version had their own showcases and rewards, giving fans multiple ways to jump in and walk away with something memorable.

Origins Quest – Pong of Champions Mobile

Attendees could dive into the Origins Quest – Pong of Champions Mobile, a special bridge between the mobile game and the convention floor. The steps were simple: join the event, download the app, and link your XP account. Completing the quest unlocked a single all-in-one reward package that included an official in-game XP Ball, a take-home Pong of Champions set with an officially licensed ball and cups, and 3,000 XP added straight to the player’s account. With those points, attendees could purchase Vic Antony’s character from the Shopify store to use in-game.

This quest gave fans a chance to experience Pong of Champions in a new way, walking away with both digital rewards and physical prizes to remember the event. It also marked the launch of Vic Antony’s character in Pong of Champions Mobile, opening up new opportunities for players to unlock and play as him in future events.

High Noon Showdown

Every afternoon, the booth turned into the arena for the Origins Pong of Champions: High Noon Showdown, a 1v1, no-teams, Single elimination throwdown. Six cups per side, diamond re-racks, rebuttals on the line, and nothing but pressure.

The stakes were simple: win and advance, lose and you’re out. But no one walked away empty-handed, every competitor claimed an official Pong of Champions cup, a badge of honor for stepping into the ring.

Crowds gathered, matches ran hot, and High Noon quickly became the heartbeat of the booth. Clutch rebuttals and tense face-offs gave Origins its own legend in the Pong of Champions community.

Until Next Time

From the Quest to the Showdown, Origins Game Fair showed how Pong of Champions can shine in front of a live crowd. The energy was real, the competition was fierce, and the memories will stick with the community. If you weren’t in Columbus this time, you truly missed out.

Stay tuned for the next opportunity to jump in and experience it for yourself.
