Leo, Global Head of Valorant Esports, said: "The player base in China has shown its potential and the team continues to excel in global events, and with the launch of Valorant in China, we hope to bring this community into the global sport. ”
Valorant is a character-centric 5v5 tactical shooter competitive game with tens of millions of players around the world. To nurture and support global events, Riot Games has launched the Valorant Champions Tour (VCT). On August 24, 2023, Riot Games announced as part of the Valorant Champions Tour (VCT) 2024 Esports Season Plan that China will join the Americas, EMEA, and Pacific regions as VCT's fourth official league (VCT CN), and the opportunities will be expanded to new regions. This also means that from next year, the CN region will be officially integrated into the Valorant esports global tournament system.
Anna Donlon, Executive Producer of Valorant, said: "There's no doubt that Valorant is a source of excitement for fans around the world, and it's exciting for players around the world to compete together, just like the Tokyo Masters showcased. "As the final piece of the Valorant globalization puzzle, China is critical to globalization.
The establishment of the VCT CN competition area is undoubtedly a win-win situation for domestic e-sports or the game itself. For the domestic e-sports audience, in the current lack of high-quality new works, the arrival of Valorant has largely made up for the lack of content;For Valorant, China has the world's largest esports market, and entering the Chinese market is an inevitable part of its globalization journey. With the final piece of the Valorant global esports puzzle being completed, this move is bound to usher in a huge explosion of traffic and attention, and at the same time, the development space of Valorant is still limitless, and the future of Valorant esports is full of countless possibilities.
Nova will become a long-term partner of VCT CN.
With the opening of the VCT CN region in 2024, the VCT CN region will select 10 partner teams as long-term partners, just like the Americas, EMEA and Pacific regions. It is hoped that these long-term partners will share a vision, focus on long-term and sustainable development, and contribute to the development of the entire Valorant esports ecosystem.
