After a disappointing campaign in VCT Stage 1 in which the South Asian teams of Global Esports and Velocity Gaming fell in the early stages, “South Asia Arise” depicts the teams letting go of that weight, shattering the jail of their past results, and moving ahead to conquer in VCT Stage 2.
Shiva Nandy, Founder and CEO of Skyesports, commented, “Our goal with the SCS is to create a benchmark for South Asian esports, and the South Asia Arise music video is just one of the many things we have planned.
“I would like to thank Global Esports Studios, who have done a fantastic job on creating a truly goosebumps-inducing video as we head into the SCS Playoffs. I can’t wait to show fans the other surprises we have in store and also unveil the stage we have built here in Chennai.”
