At the heart of it is the concept of bridging online and in-real-life (IRL) fan engagement. For Worlds 2023, the Virtual Pass will feature a mix of digital products (Worlds skin exclusive variant, in-game event pass, plus some exclusive content), unique physical products (exclusive Worlds merch), and physical and digital goods from sponsors.
Global Head of LoL Esports Naz Aletaha said, “We’re thrilled to bring Worlds back to the birthplace of esports and home of the LCK, and look forward to celebrating the best-of-the-best in League with fans in Korea and around the world this fall.”
Korea has previously hosted the 2022 Mid-Season Invitational (MSI) in Busan and Worlds 2018 and Worlds 2014 with multi-city tours.
