Teams confirmed for VALORANT Game Changers Championship 2026
It’s almost time for the all-female VALORANT Game Changers Championship 2026 to take place, and we are hyped to see who comes out on top. From 22 October to 1 November 2026, the tournament will take place live on LAN at the Riot Games Arena venue in São Paulo, Brazil.
A total of 10 teams will compete for their share of a significant prize pool and the glory of lifting the coveted trophy. Nine of the 10 teams have already been confirmed, and the last one will only be known on 15 October, when the Last Chance Qualifier (also live from the venue in Brazil) concludes.
The Americas Last Chance Qualifier features only three teams, with one spot at the main event up for grabs. The teams are MIBR GC, Akave Esport Black, and FlyQuest RED.
