"We are thrilled to have one of the world's most renowned athletes join the ranks of RAID's Banner Lord Champions, a title she is already quite familiar with in her career," said Ronen Gross , VP of business development at Plarium.

After February 28th , Ronda will no longer be available through the 7-day loyalty program but can then be secured by only new players during a special in-game event up until May 15 . Players can also opt-in to receive in-game promo codes through February 28th that unlock Ronda-related rewards.

GameStop Frenzy Cools, E*Trade Considers Roaring Kitty Ban

GameStop (NYSE:GME) continues to cool following a trading frenzy that drove shares up by 75 percent between the close of trading last Friday (May 31) and the start of trading on Monday (June 3).

The brief rally, which took GameStop shares to US$40.09 on Monday morning, was sparked by a Reddit (NYSE:RDDT) post made late Sunday (June 2) by an account tied to the video game retailer's most prominent supporter, Keith Gill.

Gill, who ignited the meme stock craze in 2021 and is known as Roaring Kitty on other platforms, posted a screenshot on Reddit's Superstonk subreddit that shows a purported US$175 million position in GameStop shares and call options.
