Riot Games announced Wednesday that PC maker iBUYPOWER has been named an official partner and the official PC for Valorant Champions Tour Americas International League, VCT Game Changers North America, and VCT Game Changers Brazil esports leagues.
Financial terms of this deal were not disclosed.
Under the terms of this deal, iBUYPOWER will provide the on stage competition PCs across VCT Americas events. In addition, the company will make available a series of official VCT Americas “‘Spec-Approved” PCs available to the public.
The company will also be part of an activation called the “iBUYPOWER ACE” moment, “a triumphant, high-skill, moment where a single player eliminates all five of the opposing team’s players to achieve victory,” according to a release. When this occurs, iBUYPOWER will be offering PC giveaways for VCT Americas fans (for residents of the United States and Canada).
iBUYPOWER also plans to offer online and offline community engagement events during the 2024 season including in-game item giveaways, limited edition tailgate prizes, and more.
In addition to these initiatives and branded PC offerings, IBUYPOWER branding will be featured during VCT broadcasts, on social media and live streaming platforms during the 2024 season.
