Accordingly, the update actually talks about more than the venue.
Firstly, we have a date also. Indeed, the event has been moved closer to take place in Summer rather than the end of the calendar year!
This change in calendar is supported by comments from Leo Faria, the global head of esports for Wild Rift:
That’s something we’re really excited [about] because we can get the team who works on the League of Legends World Championship and have them also work on Icons and on VALORANT Champions.
