TEC announces Rise of Legion: Apex Legends, set to host 30 APAC teams including ALGS champions Reignite

Things are set to reach the next level in June for Apex Legends fans in the Indian subcontinent. The game's competitive scene is quite well known and has recently expanded massively.

The experience of teams from India, Sri Lanka, and Bangladesh is set to reach the next level in the upcoming Rise of Legion: Apex Legends tournament.

Since the game's inception, Respawn has always focussed on the competitive side of things. The overall nature of the battle royale game makes it ideal for players to form squads and take each other on.

For the first time, this will be a wonderful opportunity for players from South Asia. To make matters more exciting, 15 of the best from the qualifiers will go up against 15 invited teams. The stakes have never been higher with a former ALGS champions in the ranks.

This is the first time that India will be having an international Apex Legends tournament of such caliber. Despite the presence of millions of gamers across different platforms, esports' growth has been slow.

However, the scene is now changing rapidly as the nation is opening up to the scope of professional gaming. The Rise of Legion tournament will be the perfect opportunity for all budding gamers to showcase their potential in front of the world.

Since its inception, the game has quickly grown to a global audience as its ability to integrate legends with battle royale has been positive. Players usually form squads of three and play as these Legends. Each has its strengths and weaknesses, and the goal is to find the right balance to become the last squad standing.

It will all be on full show once June 15 comes. Players are advised to apply quickly as registrations will close on June 14.
