Tears of the Kingdom midnight launch had kids form a circle pit at a death metal gig

What better way to celebrate the release of The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom than by listening to a metal concert and watching the kids make a circle?
Midnight releases are a tough experience for some, as they can be a fun way to connect with your local community; it is even possible that Bowser himself will sell you the copy of it. But where some midnight releases will keep things simple by literally selling people the game, others will go the extra mile, like at a GameStop in Texas, Houston, which literally featured a death metal concert and a group of kids standing in a circle. .
As reported by Consequencehttps://consequence.net/2023/05/kids-circle-pit-gamestop/ (thanks, NME), the band featured on the midnight release is called Severance, and the group’s lead singer, Chris De Leon, says he’s a “great gamer” and is a friend of the GameStop manager. The manager invited the band to play at the midnight release, and they played. “[Before] the last song [we played that night] … I saw these little kids really getting into this in front of us, and one of them started doing a circular motion,” De Leon said. in total… we call that a circular moat. … The song starts and these kids are getting tough.”
A bit of context for non-concert-going readers: circular moats are a bit like moshing, instead of pushing everyone away you just create a circle and run around the edges, as beautifully demonstrated by the kids in the clip below .
Midnight releases seem to be forming all sorts of memories and stories for gamers, as a gamer might even have found love while attending a midnight release. Something to tell the grandkids!
