Contrary to what's being posted on the web, SPLAT Magazine is alive and well, and instead of going under, we are evolving into a new form of paintball media provider, one that will better target the web-savvy youth dominated extreme sport of Paintball.

SPLAT Magazine, paintball’s most informative and stylish extreme sport magazine, is pleased to announce the launch of a new online experience, SPLATXD, to better serve paintball’s prime demographic, one that craves various forms of rich digital media. SPLATXD was formed at the request of our prominent advertisers, who have seen a lack of interest and returns in traditional print magazines. They asked us to create a new magazine that would satisfy the needs of paintballers that prefer to use the web (Thats most of you) to receive their paintball content.

Hosted exclusively on SPLATMagazine.com, SPLATXD will be a free MONTHLY publication packed with unique editorial content and produced on one of the most exciting new media platforms available. Featuring video interviews, player analysis, gear previews and the best event coverage the sport has to offer, SPLATXD promises to be the ultimate digital page turner.

By combining the innovative features that made SPLAT Magazine one of the leaders on newsstands with digital media, each issue of SPLATXD is loaded with hours of premium video content that is created exclusively for our readers, including:

• Expert Product Reviews
• Pro Player Tournament Strategy
• Marker Field Testing
• Woodsball/Scenario Tactics
• Breaking News
• Interviews… and much more.

SPLATXD is an online experience created to satisfy the paintball player’s needs and emotions. Five years ago SPLAT re-invented the paintball magazine with classic photography and editorial. Now SPLATXD will revolutionize the paintball world by making rich media relevant, accessible and fun.

SPLATMagazine.com is the world’s leading web-based resource for paintball players of all levels. It is the perfect environment to breed new media.

The first issue of SPLATXD goes live on SPLATMagazine.com on June 1st. We’ll see you there!
