Fans of tactical first-person shooter games can look forward to a one-off, competitive tournament that places regional bragging rights on the line, as Riot Games Southeast Asia shines the spotlight on VALORANT in the region through the VALORANT SEA Invitational, slated for July 11, 1:30 PM (GMT +8).

Held with official event organizer IO Esports, the VALORANT SEA Invitational will feature six teams of five prominent content creators and personalities each from Indonesia, the Philippines, Malaysia, Singapore, Taiwan and Thailand, all of whom will be showcasing their in-game skills and outplaying one another in what promises to be an entertaining showcase. Up for grabs is a total prize pool of US$10,000, various prizes from official sponsors Intel, Secretlab, and GIGABYTE, and not forgetting, honour and pride as the best team in the region.

Participating teams will also duke it out for good cause as Riot Games Southeast Asia will donate US$10,000 to GlobalGiving’s Coronavirus Relief Fund to benefit projects working on the stop and prevention of the pandemic’s spread, in celebration of the launch of VALORANT in conjunction with the SEA Invitational.

The SEA Invitational will be broadcast live in English, Traditional Chinese, Thai, Bahasa Malaysia and Bahasa Indonesia on Facebook, YouTube and Twitch.
