Five years ago, VALORANT arrived in South Asia with a simple promise: to deliver clutch gameplay and high-octane FPS hero shooter action. What followed was far more – late-night team talks in dorm rooms, friendships built in cyber cafes, taunts turned into inside jokes, and a vibrant community that made the game unmistakably their own. This month, on VALORANT’s 5th anniversary, Riot Games brought that journey full circle with V5, a campaign built as a tribute to every South Asian player who made VALORANT more than just a game.

V5 was designed to be a true reflection of the players, a campaign that lived in the same spaces they do: on their campuses, in their cafes, and on their timelines. Rooted in cultural nuance, it celebrated the reality of the player experience through animated shorts based on real stories, UGC-driven content, murals, college activations, and a host of community-driven celebrations. 

“V5 is our ‘Thank You’ to a generation of players who made VALORANT their own,” said Arun Rajappa, Country Manager, Riot Games India & South Asia. “Whether you’re top-fragging in ranked matches or reminiscing over your first LAN, this campaign is about your story. We wanted V5 to reflect the unique way South Asia has embraced VALORANT. The response has been uplifting, and it only reinforces why we build with community at the center.”

At the heart of it all was the V5 key visual, a vibrant and colorful tapestry of South Asian gaming culture. It was as much about memory as it was about mood: a steaming cup of chai to honor the all-nighters, subtle nods to LAN café setups that birthed both rivalries and friendships, and the unmistakable “NHK?” (“Nahi ho raha kya?”) jibe, which has become part of the everyday VALORANT vocabulary across the region. This logo was a visual time capsule, recognizable, relatable, and a proud representation of the region’s gaming culture..

As part of V5’s on-ground presence, Riot reimagined the streets of Mumbai, Delhi, Gurgaon, and Kota with an OOH (Out-of-Home) campaign that didn’t just speak to the community, it spoke like them. Across Gurgaon, Mumbai, and Delhi, LED billboards lit up with iconic in-game callouts like the playful jibe “Kal aana kal” and the ever-reliable pre-round “Skin dede bro!” phrases that have become part of everyday VALORANT banter. In Kota, the campaign took a hyperlocal twist, with traditional billboards across high-traffic areas. What made the campaign stand out was that these callouts weren’t just written for the community; they were voted on by them, turning the streets into shared arenas of recognition and pride.

One of the most timely and playful moments of the V5 campaign landed on June 2 — the day IIT-JEE Mains results were announced, a high-pressure milestone for millions of students across India. Seizing this cultural flashpoint, Riot rolled out ‘VAL Toppers’, a cheeky twist on the way coaching centres in cities like Kota celebrate academic success. But instead of JEE rankers, these billboards spotlighted Radiant-ranked VALORANT players, honoring them with the same visual fanfare usually reserved for exam toppers. With VAL Toppers, Riot offered a tongue-in-cheek nod to South Asia’s competitive spirit, proving that top-tier aim and top-tier ambition can shine in very different arenas.

The campaign made its presence felt at the VCSA Split 2 finals, where VALORANT set up an open-access booth at the Phoenix Market City, Mumbai. Visitors, many new to the game, got hands-on with VALORANT and a lot of exciting swag like custom marshmallows featuring their favourite agents and t-shirts capturing elements of V5. It was a low-barrier, high-impact entry point that turned casual curiosity into active interest.

To close the campaign, Riot hosted V5 Game Night at ApeCity, India’s first org-led gaming cafe in Navi Mumbai, transforming it into a celebration zone with friendly showmatches, video games, and a comedy set by popular comic Raunaq Rajani. It was a final nod to the players who built the community and a call to those who’ll define what comes next.

According to the Lumikai State of India Interactive Media and Gaming Report FY24, India’s gaming market generated $3.8 billion in FY24 and is projected to grow to $9.2 billion by FY29. With 66% of gamers coming from non-metro cities and 43% being first-time earners aged 18–30, the data reflects gaming’s growing cultural and economic weight. V5 is a reflection of this moment, when games stop being pastimes and start becoming part of how an entire generation communicates, celebrates, and connects.

V5 ultimately proved that VALORANT in South Asia is lived, embedded in comms, cafe walls, student timetables, and weekend routines. And now, it has cemented its place in India’s entertainment mainstream.
