CHINA – EDward Gaming sold over 74,000 team bundles in less than four hours during today’s VCT CN campaign on Douyin (TikTok China) Live Shopping.
This marks the first time specific sales numbers for any VCT region have been disclosed, offering insight into the sales performance of each VCT CN team during the Live Shopping event. However, this figure still does not account for how many bundles were sold in-game.
Bilibili came in second with more than 12,000 bundles sold, while JD Gaming had the lowest number of sales with around 300 as of 11 PM China Standard Time. The live event featured representatives from each team selling the bundle during the livestream, as is common in the TikTok Live Shopping experience.
