Riot Games has been taking massive strides to increase community involvement and enhance the player experience for Valorant within India and South Asia for the past couple of years. With programs such as Valorant Challengers South Asia and Game Changers South Asia & Convergence on their menu, they have single-handedly raised the bar for gaming in the entire region.
