Following a selective competitive application process, Riot Games has decided to promote Full Sense to VCT Pacific for the 2026 season, replacing TALON Esports.

With the 2026 season kicking off soon, it was important that our competitive selection process focused on finding an organisation with operational readiness and alignment on goals and collaboration. With that said, we also wanted to ensure that the replacement team had fan resonance and an operational footprint in Southeast Asia to ensure representation from the region.

After a careful review of a number of proposals, we determined that Full Sense met all our requirements and would be the best fit for the league. 

Full Sense will also be retaining the full active roster of players from TALON. 

This promotion does not affect 2026 formats for VCT Pacific; the league will go forward with 12 teams as planned.

We are excited to welcome them in the 2026 season, alongside the rest of our partnered teams, and the two teams that were promoted from Ascension Pacific.
