What is the VALORANT Esports World Cup tournament
VALORANT is one of the newest titles in the esports scene, and it is also the most recent title to be added to the Esports World Cup lineup. After being released in 2020 and with the first VALORANT Champions Tour event being played in 2021, VALORANT will now take its place in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
Much like most of the titles at the Esports World Cup, the VALORANT EWC event will not be part of the 2025 VALORANT Champions Tour, which means organisations will be competing for the massive prize money and EWC Club Championship points.
The world’s top 16 VALORANT teams qualified for the Esports World Cup, with the likes of G2 Esports, Fnatic, Paper Rex and EDward Gaming headlining the list of squads.
