The VCT 2024 season kicks off with the highly anticipated VCT Masters Madrid, marking Valorant’s debut in Spain and the return of the tournament to the EMEA region. Riot Games has announced that the event will take place in the first quarter of next year, although an official date is yet to be revealed.
In a major expansion, China will join the international league, alongside the Pacific, Americas, and EMEA regions, competing for a spot in Masters Madrid. The new format will feature eight teams, with only the top two from each region qualifying for the global tournament.
Masters Madrid serves as a gateway for teams to earn Valorant Champions Points, the new point system introduced by Riot Games for the VCT 2024 season. The squads with the highest points at the end of the season will secure a spot in the prestigious Valorant World Championship.
