Rolls-Royce Creates One-off “Black Badge Ghost Gamer” Inspired By Videogames For A Client - autojosh

Rolls-Royce creates one-off “Black Badge Ghost Gamer” inspired by videogames for one of its clients.

Other exterior details includes the unique motif that recalls the bitmapped graphics of early video games.

The seats feature bespoke ‘Player 1’ and ‘Player 2’ embroideries in the front and ‘Player 3’ and ‘Player 4’ in the rear.





A tech entrepreneur with a deep passion for early arcade culture has taken delivery of their one-off ‘Rolls-Royce Black Badge Ghost Gamer’, a bespoke commission inspired by the 8-bit universe of vintage video games.

Black Badge Ghost Gamer reimagines the 8-bit aesthetics of vintage video games with its bespoke features, including its striking two-tone finish, with the main body in Salamanca Blue and the upper body in deep-shimmer Crystal over Diamond Black.

Other exterior details includes the unique motif nicknamed the ‘Cheeky Alien’ that recalls the bitmapped graphics of early video games. The ‘Cheeky Alien’ appears as a hand-painted green Coachline motif alongside an 8-bit explosion design on the sides of the motor car.

In addition, the one-off ‘Rolls-Royce Black Badge Ghost Gamer’ also boasts a Bespoke Illuminated Treadplates that displays classic arcade-game prompts such as ‘PRESS START’, ‘LOADING…’, ‘LEVEL UP’ and ‘INSERT COIN’.

Inside, the Black and Casden Tan interior suite echoes the logic and visual language of a late 1970s video game arcade, while the seats feature bespoke ‘Player 1’ and ‘Player 2’ embroideries in the front and ‘Player 3’ and ‘Player 4’ in the rear.





Above is the ‘Pixel Blaster’ Starlight Headliner created by 80 bitmapped battlecruisers. Rolls-Royce reprogrammed its signature ‘Shooting Star’ to simulate laser fire, and beams of light pulse from the ships across the ceiling.

“Over the course of a month, we immersed ourselves in the 8-bit aesthetic that defined late 70s and early 80s gaming – from the games themselves and archive imagery of arcade halls, to original promotional and cabinet artwork”, said Joshua McCandless, Bespoke Designer at Rolls-Royce Motor Cars.
