Every era eventually meets its challenger. In 2026, VCT saw the beginning of that shift. New contenders have emerged, expectations have been broken, and twice at Masters, a new champion has risen. Now it all comes together in Shanghai, a city where history and the future live side by side. From September 24 to October 18, familiar names, new contenders, and a fearless generation of challengers will compete for the biggest trophy of the year.
Sixteen teams from Americas, CN, EMEA, and Pacific will battle to become the 2026 VALORANT World Champion.
We’re proud to work with our fantastic partners throughout 2026: AWS, Coinbase, EWC, ENC, Globant, HyperX, Mastercard, OnePlus, Red Bull, Secretlab, and Verizon.
