After a short period of development, it officially upgraded to the League of Legends: Wild Rift Asian League, becoming the first cross-regional professional mobile esports league. 

In April, the first season of the Asian League started in Shanghai, China. After intense competition in the regular season and playoffs, on July 21, four teams from two regions will engage in a three-day fierce battle.

As the in-game battles are intense, the carnival outside the arena will be equally exciting.
