Riot Games' popular FPS game " VALORANT " has been released about 1 year and 6 months ago, and the eSports scene has been buzzing with excitement, and the momentum is only increasing.
In the midst of all this, " OSAKA VALORANT FES " was held at " REDEE ", one of Japan's largest digital education facilities in Osaka, for two days on December 18 (Sat.) and 19 (Sun.), 2021!
The " OSAKA VAL ORANT FES" was the largest VALORANT offline event ever held in Japan!
We at Saiga NAK visited the event site and are proud to present you the photos of the event!
What is OSAKA VALORANT FES?
The " OSAKA VALORANT FES " was held this time, and the games were divided into 5 areas on the 1st and 2nd floors!
There are three types of matches: Custom Match, Score Attack, and Special Rule Match, and the ranking is determined by the number of coins earned in each match!
Let's take a quick peek at the venue!
As we proceed through the venue, we see life-size characters!
The VALORANT REFLECTION banner is cool too!
We were even able to take a commemorative photo!
Entering the venue from the 2nd floor entrance, we saw the PC AREA, one of the five areas!
Each player was playing with a serious look in their eyes.
Since the games are not played on the stage, but in one space of the venue, even players who have never played before can concentrate on their game without any nervousness.
Jet and Killjoy banners on the ceiling!
Going further back, PC AREA 2 in the VALORANT area comes into view!

Monitors on the pillars of the venue are also showing scenes from the VALORANT FES!
The current rankings of the matches are displayed throughout the venue!
