OPPO has announced its partnership with Riot Games to sponsor the League of Legends World Championship 2021. The partnership was part of the company’s multi-year deal signed with Riot Games in 2019.
This year, OPPO will present the most valuable players awards to pro players who dominate the battlegrounds with otherworldly performances in the finals. The company will also bring gaming highlights as well as interviews of the pro players and the teams to the audience.
“It’s our pleasure to continue the partnership with Riot Games this year. League of Legends provides OPPO a platform to let more gamers around the world get to know us better. More importantly, the unyielding spirit of the pro players is similar to OPPO’s relentless strive for innovation when it comes to products and technology. We are constantly concentrating on delivering nothing short of excellence and creating unique experiences for our users,” said William Liu, Vice President and President of Global Marketing at OPPO.
“Based on the successful partnership last year, we are thrilled to have OPPO sponsor the League of Legends World Championship 2021. As the first global smartphone partner for the game, OPPO has become one of the most impressive tech brands among global esports players. We look forward to seeing what OPPO will bring to the audience in the finals,” said John Needham, Global Head of Esports at Riot Games.
