RMG’s Head of Gaming Content, Adrian Lai said, “As promised earlier, we’re back with another Squad Up, and we’re aware of our fans’ interest in a tournament for VALORANT, one of the most popular competitive shooters in the world today. We’re excited to host this and we expect to see healthy competition from the players in their quest to win their share of the RM5,000 prize pool.

“We aspire to take Malaysian esports to the next level, and Malaysia’s gold medal haul at the recent Commonwealth Esports Championships is proof of our nation’s calibre.

“With this initiative, we hope to uncover new world-class talents and pave the way for them to compete on the international stage one day,” he added.
