Welcome to the climax of the 2025 VALORANT Champions Tour! The biggest stage in VALORANT is ready, the lights of Paris are shining, and the countdown has begun. Following a season of historic rivalries, epic comebacks, and unforgettable moments, the world’s top teams now gather at Champions Paris.


From September 12 to October 5, the journey continues through Group Stage and Playoffs before the epic conclusion at the Grand Final with the crowning of the next World Champion. The Group Stage will feature 16 teams spread across four groups, with each group hosting one team from VALORANT's four International Leagues. In this stage, teams will battle through a double elimination format, advancing two teams out of each group. The 8 teams who make it out will be randomly seeded into a double elimination bracket, with teams from the same group placed on opposite sides of the bracket. Teams will compete through Best-of-3 matches until the final 2 matches which will be a Best-of-5. The last team standing will claim the title of VALORANT World Champion!
