It’s gameshow season here in South East Asia! I was recently at Thailand Game Show for HoYo Fest, where the show announced that 180,000 people attended the event. Not to be outdone, Gamescom Asia in Singapore also announced that it had 34,000 attend the event, setting a new record for gaming events in Singapore. In addition to that, we also recently had IGDX (Indonesia) and Level Up KL (Malaysia). South East Asia is often considered a minor region by most publishers and developers, and most often prefer to spend in regions like Japan and East Asia. However, according to Niko Partners, the region (Primarily Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam) is set to bring in more than $5.8 billion in revenue in 2023.

Valorant Shenghai is close to being underway. Here’s some k/ stats that you’re not going to believe! Pacific Region: Gen.G holds the top 4 slots in most kills in ALL of pacific. T3xture (526) Meteor (467) Karon (420) Munchkin (411) Which is absurd. There’s only one person who has more kills this season from China: Edward Gaming (EDG) ZmjjKK with a total of 529 kills racked up so far. Emea: Fnatic is leading Emea having four of their 5 players on the top of kill in region. Americas Region kills are dispersed between LEVIATAN G2 Esports and 100 Thieves.
