The VCT has been having several events in every season since 2021, and the Masters is the second most significant international VALORANT competition after the Champions. Every year, there are usually two Masters tournaments, and this year, the first one will be the VALORANT Masters Bangkok 2025. The other one will be in Toronto, Canada. To be eligible for the Masters, teams must finish first or second in their regional leagues.

The event in the Thai capital will be held for a bit over one week in late February and early March and will be organized by Riot Games, an American video game developer, publisher, and eSports tournament organizer based in Los Angeles, California, who released the VALORANT game in 2020.

Where and When Will the VALORANT Masters Bangkok 2025 Be Held?

With eight top-placed teams from the Americas, Pacific, EMEA, and China Kickoffs, the VALORANT Masters Bangkok 2025 is the first cross-border VCT event of the year. The eligible teams have the opportunity to win a portion of the prize money in addition to increasing their VCT Championship Points for the Champions Paris, which is the cherry on top of the cake, i.e., this season.

When VALORANT Masters Bangkok 2025 begins on February 20 and ends on March 2 from the UOB Live arena, we’ll find out which side will seize the chance to make a lasting impression on the world stage, proving that their regional league is the most powerful.

Pros and Cons of the VALORANT Masters Bangkok 2025’s Format Changes

The VCT has made changes to its Champions Points system in advance of the 2025 season. Points will be given out more regularly thanks to this upgrade. This follows complaints over teams receiving zero points at international competitions unless they were the overall winners during the 2024 season. The teams that are among the top four Kickoff teams in 2025 will receive Championship Points. Teams will be able to get points more equitably thanks to this updated points system.

The season starts early now, which shortens the off season and extends the competitive season.

Non-partner VCT teams were formerly assigned a two-year contract. They’ll instead receive a one-year contract in 2025, though. Depending on how well the squad does, there’s also a chance that the contracts will be extended. The number of teams that can compete in each region has also been updated. Only two non-partnered teams are allowed to compete in each region because Riot Games has set a limitation of 12 teams per region.

Newcomers to the VCT are APEKS (EMEA), Boom Esports and Nongshim RedForce (Pacific), XLG Esports (CN), and 2GAME Esports (Americas).
