SXSW Burns it Down With Childish Gambino, Run DMT, and the Midnight Launch of "Titanfall" (Video)

Austin's barely able to contain this level of heat.

As if the streets in Austin for SXSW 2014 couldn't get any hotter, we had the chance to attend the midnight launch party of EA and Respawn Entertainment's,Titanfall

Did we mention that Childish Gambino was also in attendance?

Yes, sir. Donald Glover aka Childish Gambino killed it onstage alongside Austin's own Run DMT ,and Xbox and Microsoft kicked off the night with full retail copies of Titanfall choking every corner of the downtown warehouse space.

We got a chance to catch up with Respawn's Abbie Heppe, Chief Marketing Strategy Officer for Xbox, Yusuf Mehdi, and Mr. Glover himself before he took to the stage.

Check out our coverage of the event above and keep in locked to Complex for your SXSW coverage.
