Riot Games confirmed that Thailand-based esports organization Full Sense will compete in the VCT Pacific league for the 2026 season. The team steps into the position previously held by Talon Esports, which exited the competition after its removal from the league.
By assuming Talon’s former roster, Full Sense ensures the continued presence of Thai representation within the international VALORANT circuit. This transition marks a significant opportunity for the organization to establish itself at the highest competitive level in the Pacific region.
Full Sense to VCT Pacific
Riot Games has confirmed that Full Sense will occupy the open VCT Pacific 2026 slot following Talon Esports’ departure due to financial instability. The decision came after a detailed evaluation process centered on organizational readiness, operational structure, and the ability to maintain Southeast Asian representation within the league.
The selection process prioritized teams with proven management capabilities, sustainable funding, and strong connections with local fanbases. Full Sense satisfied these requirements and succeeded in securing the vacant position among the league’s twelve-team structure, which remains unchanged for 2026.
