Sentinels and FNATIC will not be heading to Singapore for the UNSTOPPABLE ’24 OFF//SEASON event due to the unfortunate cancellation.
SINGAPORE – Sports fan engagement platform Fanzeal has officially announced the cancellation of the upcoming UNSTOPPABLE ‘24 OFF//SEASON event, originally scheduled for November 28th to December 1st in Singapore. In a statement to VALO2ASIA this morning, the organizers confirmed the event was called off due to “unforeseen circumstances
“Due to some unforeseen circumstances, we required significantly more resources to ensure we delivered the high standards we set from the start. When we were informed that we could not access these resources in time, we made the tough, but right decision to cancel.
Our team explored multiple solutions, but we ultimately chose to cancel the event rather than compromise the fan and player experience, which is our top priority.”
The cancellation of UNSTOPPABLE ‘24 comes after the announcement of several participating teams in recent weeks, including Masters Madrid champions Sentinels, EMEA powerhouse FNATIC, and four VCT Pacific teams: Global Esports, Team Secret, Talon Esports, and RRQ.

UNSTOPPABLE ‘24 was scheduled to feature a $100,000 prize pool and take place at the outdoor venue Palawan Green on Sentosa Island in Singapore. The event also planned to offer a unique digital viewing pass with two pricing tiers, ranging from $9.99 to $19.99, granting access to player POVs, behind-the-scenes content, and more.
“We were incredibly excited for both the free viewing experience as well as the innovative features we were intending to bring to the premium experiences with Fanzeal Vision, as well as to give the fans in Singapore the chance to watch a Valorant official for the first time on home soil.
We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and disappointment this may cause, but the quality of the event was at the forefront of this decision. We look forward to creating future opportunities to connect with our amazing esports community, fans and teams in Singapore and abroad.”
UNSTOPPABLE ‘24 would have been the first international VALORANT event held in Singapore, following shortly after the $1,000,000 BLAST Premier World Final for Counter-Strike.
With the event off the calendar, Global Esports and Team Secret currently have no upcoming events, while Talon Esports and RRQ are set to travel to Japan next week for the Red Bull Home Ground APAC Play-In.
