As Valorant started to make its own way into India, gamers in the country now have another battlefield to compete altogether. In a recent interview, NODWIN Gaming also disclosed that every single move they’re taking is mainly focusing on this tactical FPS game.
NODWIN Gaming founder Akshat Rathee was the host of a talk show named “Docu-series” on July 26th, in which he mentioned about the esports landscape in both India and South East Asia alongside the promising impact it’ll bring in the near future.
The show welcomed a series of notable figures in the gaming industry, such as Riot Games’ senior executives Sukamal Pegu and Luciano Rahal, Fnatic’s Nimish Raut, famous streamer Shagufta Iqbal, etc.
NODWIN Gaming already planned for its very first Valorant Invitational, which will go live on August 4th. As reported, the tournament hosts a total of eight teams, including 8BITTHUG, V3NOM, NODWIN, Riot, Hydraflick, Fnatic Nemo, Team Xyaa, and Global Esports.
Ping is still a longstanding issue for Valorant players in India as people are having to participate in the game through SEA servers, leading to a much higher ping (about 150!) as well as ineffective gameplay.
Not long ago, Riot and Paytm did hold a meeting to discuss the future of Valorant in India, especially when it comes to an Indian Valorant server that will take place by the end of this year. Also, they promised to launch a professional Valorant league and prize pools for upcoming tournaments in order to bolster the presence of Valorant in the country.
This so-called reunion looks like a milestone for the future of this game and the community of FPS enthusiasts all over the country. If everything doesn't go wrong, we'll soon have a chance to witness and dive into world-class gaming experiences in the coming months!
