The international Valorant competitive scene is gearing up for another electrifying showcase as top teams from China, the Pacific region, and the Americas arrive in Beijing for an action-packed tournament. This event brings together some of the most strategically disciplined and mechanically gifted squads in global Valorant, setting the stage for several days of intense competition, high-energy matchups, and major regional pride.

Representing VCT China are EDward Gaming (EDG), Bilibili Gaming (BLG), and Wolves, three teams whose recent performances have solidified China as a rising powerhouse in the Valorant ecosystem. EDG, known for their fearless aggression and explosive playmaking, consistently push the limits of high-tempo Valorant. BLG, meanwhile, lean on structure and adaptability, often surprising opponents with deep map preparation and smart macro decisions. Wolves round out the roster of Chinese contenders, bringing a mix of disciplined positioning and emerging individual talent.

From the Pacific region, fans will see DRX and Rex Regum Qeon (RRQ) stepping into the Beijing spotlight. DRX remain one of the most respected teams in the Pacific league thanks to their long-term synergy, exceptional utility usage, and world-class fundamentals. RRQ, on the other hand, continue to evolve year after year, earning a reputation for unpredictable strategies and a roster capable of high-impact performances at crucial moments.

Completing the lineup is Leviatán, one of the strongest teams from VCT Americas. With a blend of seasoned veterans and rising stars, Leviatán bring both tactical depth and fiery clutch potential, making them a dangerous opponent for any region. Their inclusion not only intensifies the competitive diversity of the event but also highlights the growing talent pool within the Americas.

Venue: A Return to an Iconic Stage

All matches will be held at the JDG Esports Center in Beijing, a venue known for hosting the VCT China Stage One Finals earlier this year. The arena’s modern design, state-of-the-art technical setup, and energetic local fanbase make it a fitting location for a tournament of this caliber. Beijing’s growing reputation as a hub for esports ensures players and fans alike will experience an event filled with production excellence and electric atmosphere.

Format and Tournament Structure

The competition format is designed to test consistency, preparation, and clutch resilience. The event begins with two groups of three teams, competing in a single round-robin format, with all matches played as best-of-one. These group-stage battles will take place on November 29, offering fans a day filled with rapid-fire matchups where every round matters.

Only the top two teams from each group will advance to the semifinals, scheduled for November 30. Unlike the group stage, the semifinals will adopt a best-of-three format, giving teams more room to adapt, counter-strategize, and showcase deeper map pools. The winners of these semifinals will finally meet in a best-of-five grand final, where endurance, strategy, and mental fortitude will determine the ultimate champion.

Tickets, Fan Activities, and Special Events

Tickets are now live and can be purchased through YiPiaoTong via WeChat Mini Programs, allowing easy access for both local and traveling fans. In addition to the Valorant tournament, the arena will also host an Honor of Kings event one week earlier. This additional tournament expands the festival atmosphere and turns the venue into a broader celebration of competitive gaming, giving fans multiple reasons to visit and engage with the esports community.
