Day 1 / Riot Games ONE Special Opening Show by Reol
In celebration of Riot Games ONE, singer Reol (@RRReol) and VALORANT collaborated to create the song "SCORPION".
The aggressive sound of the track was created by Masayoshi Iimori (@masayoshiiimori), the trackmaker of the song.
The song is linked to the world of the game by sampling the sound of gunshots in the actual game and the jacket photo inspired by the VALORANT logo.
Reol will appear in the Opening Act on the first day of the offline event to perform live.
SCORPION" will be released on Friday, October 28, 2022 at midnight!
It will also appear on the new single "COLORED DISC" to be released on Wednesday, November 16, 2022.
We wrote the song SCORPION for Riot Games ONE.
I feel that the games of Riot Games, such as VALORANT, have opened a new door for me.
People with inferiority complexes can be kinder and stronger than anyone else.
May you and I turn even our complexes into weapons to fight in this sorrowful world.
A song of support for all those who know weakness.
The battle begins.

In 2022, ZETA DIVISION, representing Japan, won 3rd place at the "VALORANT Champions Tour 2022: Stage 1 Masters".
The "2022 VALORANT Champions Tour Challengers Japan Stage 2" held at Saitama Super Arena attracted approximately 26,000 people over two days, an event that will go down in Japanese e-sports history.
Riot Games holds leagues and various events around the world, but this is the first time that an original event of this scale has been held in Japan.
Let's hope that this will be the start of an even more exciting e-sports season in Japan, and let's first enjoy Riot Games ONE, which will begin in early November 2022!
