The tournament’s goal is to introduce Free Fire to US-based esports fans, especially since it already has a vibrant following in Southeast Asia, Brazil, India, and Europe.

“Team Liquid was one of the first Western organizations to not just step into Free Fire, but also take home one of the first Free Fire esports championships in 2020,” said Team Liquid Mobile Creator, Community Manager and Social Media Manager Nick Charles. “We’re proud to partner with Garena to help grow the Free Fire esports community in the U.S.”
