Super Evil Megacorp has announced that it is bringing the Vainglory World Championships to Singapore's Kallang Theatre from December 14 to 17, seeing 12 top teams battle it out for the chance to become the ultimate champion.
"The 2017 Vainglory World Championship will not just be the pinnacle of our esports year; it will be arguably the biggest moment in Vainglory history," said Super Evil Megacorp CEO Kristian Segerstrale. "Live on stage in Singapore, we will globally unveil Vainglory 5v5 in an epic showmatch, coinciding with a major in-game update. This moment will show, once again, that Vainglory is the most uncompromising, unapologetically core MOBA on touchscreens — and a game pushing the very boundaries of the mobile platform."
"When deciding where to crown the World Champion and celebrate the rebirth of our game, we had to return to where it all began: The players in Singapore first in beta, and then widely Southeast Asia, embraced Vainglory before anyone else and paved the way for all the success that has followed. And as we embark on a new adventure with 5v5, Southeast Asia will once again be a central strategic and community focus. We intend to prove to MOBA players around the world that Vainglory is the most-fun, best-performing 5v5 experience out there, and we look forward to working closely with our community to make it the best it can be."
The World Championships will also have keynote speeches from developers as well as a demonstration of the upcoming 5v5 mode. Who will take home the trophy though?
