VALORANT and PUBG – two new titles in A1 Adria League!

We promised more games than ever in the ninth season of the A1 Adria League! VALORANT and PUBG: Battlegrounds complete the list of seven games in which players all across the region will be able to compete and showcase their skills.

VALORANT – Riot Games’ tactical FPS

Inspired by the Counter-Strike series of tactical shooters, VALORANT takes 5v5 action to another level. On the first day of the beta, VALORANT amassed the second most concurrent viewers for any game ever on Twitch, with 1.73 million viewers tuning in across dozens of streams. Since its release, it developed into a full-scale esports ecosystem with millions of players and fans worldwide. What makes it different from CS:GO are mostly Agents and their abilities which bring more strategy and depth to the game. As previously mentioned, it’s completely free-to-play. If you haven’t tried it already, we strongly suggest you do so!

PUBG: Battlegrounds

Previously known as PlayerUnkown’s Battlegrounds, or simply PUBG is a free-to-play multiplayer battle royale game. It was initially released in 2017. Since then it made a huge impact on the gaming industry as well as esports. It’s available for multiple platforms. In the first three days of its Windows release, PUBG made 11 million dollars! More than five million copies were sold in just the first three months of early access. It won Best Multiplayer Game awards on both Golden Joystick Awards and The Game Awards back in 2017. What appeals to the players and fans the most, besides the action, is a simple goal. Be the last survivor in the match! Soon we will find out who will remain the last in the Adriatic region. Following the rules of the biggest and most competitive PUBG tournaments, in the A1 Adria League, Season 9 players will compete in the first-person mode (FPP) on PC.

VALORANT and PUBG for the first time in the League

Two new games will be a part of the A1 Adria League Season 9 alongside CS:GO, Brawl Stars, FIFA22, League of Legends, and Clash Royale. We decided to give the opportunity to more players and communities to participate and compete in the League. Both games are popular esports titles with a plethora of regional players. Domagoj “Doma” Fancev and Dragan “element” Milanović already made an impact on the global VALORANT scene. Regional PUBG teams and players are not far behind.

Now there will be even more opportunities for all the VALORANT and PUBG players from the Adriatic region to compete! Both games will be played over the course of two consecutive Saturdays. The first Saturday will be reserved for the qualifiers and the next one for the playoffs. The detailed format will be published in time. For now, here are the dates for VALORANT and PUBG.
