Locations revealed for LoL’s 2018 international tournaments

The locations for the international League of Legends tournaments for the year have been revealed.

Last year saw the game go to locations across the world. The first Rift Rivals tournaments were held in Germany, Chile, China, Russia and Taiwan. For MSI, we visited Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo in Brazil. Worlds took place in China and went across the country at huge venues in Wuhan, Guangzhou, Shanghai and Beijing.

This year’s events will be just as spread out across the world, giving people the chance to see the best every region has to offer on an international level.
