Konig Forged
The launch of our forged line is nearing close with wheels expecting to arrive in April of 2024. Here are some things you should know about our forged wheels:
- • During our initial rollout we will have set sizes and finishes made for our forged models with no custom options
- • All of the available sizes for the F1M and F3S at release are listed on our website now under “fitments”
- ○ Due to many requests and high demand we are offering our forged wheels in popular Porsche fitments for applications such as 981 & 987 Cayman/Boxster, 997, 911
- ○ Due to many requests and high demand we are offering our forged wheels in popular Corvette fitments for applications such as C5, C5z, C6, C6 wide-body, C7
- • We are aiming to introduce the second phase of our forged line in 2025 with custom sizes, and offsets
- • More fitments and sizes can be added to our current forged specs if we feel the demand is there or if we are missing a popular fitment/application

KONIG X GREASE MONKEY GAMES STUDIO
We are incredibly excited to announce our partnership with Grease Monkey Games Studio, a subsidiary of Animoca Brands and the creator of the popular Torque Motorsports series. We have partnered up to introduce the first-ever interoperable wheel NFTs to Torque Drift 2 and other games in the Torque Motorsport games franchise in the second half of this year.
Torque Drift 2 is a racing game that leverages blockchain technology to offer an immersive and true-to-life drifting experience based on true digital ownership. As the official on-chain game for Formula DRIFT, Torque Drift 2 will deliver a range of authentic racing experiences for Web2 and Web3 gamers alike as it releases content and features through 2023 and 2024 for PC, with console availability to follow. Torque Drift 2 is part of the REVV Motorsport ecosystem of metaverse racing games.
Konig-licensed NFTs for Torque Drift 2 will be interoperable in Torque Burnout and Torque Drift, the previous mobile titles developed by Grease Monkey Games under the Torque Motorsport portfolio. Interoperability is an important feature of blockchain gaming, as it allows players to have true ownership of their assets, giving them more flexibility and freedom in how they use their assets.
The first Konig-licensed NFT drop will feature eight of the company’s most sought-after alloys, including the Hypergram, Dekagram, and Ampliform, among others. The collection is aimed at existing motorsport fans as well as people interested in the NFT market.
