Following the excitement of the special event VCT LOCK//IN Brazil, which kicked off the new era of Valorant esports, all VCT teams are working hard at home in their regional leagues organized by Riot Games.

The VCT Pacific League is one of three new international leagues in the VCT structure for 2023, the others being VCT EMEA and VCT Americas.

The VCT Pacific League begins on March 25 and runs until May 28 in Seoul, South Korea. This esports league marks Riot Games' drive to strengthen its presence in the Asia Pacific region and establish Valorant as one of the top esports in the area.

The top ten Valorant teams from Malaysia, Japan, South Korea, Philippines, South Korea, Thailand and the South Asia Pacific region will face off for the inaugural season of VCT Pacific.

Here's everything fans need to know about the VCT Pacific League 2023.
