Global Esports supporters have until 10am Pacific Time on Wednesday, 11 November, to buy the organisation’s Valorant team capsule before Riot Games removes VCT Team Capsules from the store worldwide. Global Esports says this is the final chance to buy its bundle.
The official VALORANT Champions Tour account set the 11 November cut-off on 4 November, with capsules leaving the store worldwide at 10am Pacific Time. Global Esports later told supporters: “Truly the last time you can buy the GE Bundle, ever.”
Why the bundle is going away
Global Esports has closed its competitive Valorant operations. Founder and CEO Rushindra Sinha posted a farewell video on 19 October, after which the organisation released its entire roster. Sinha has said the brand will continue as GE Studios, an AI-focused venture, rather than an esports team.
The departure came shortly after Global Esports won VCT Pacific Stage 2 in Busan in September, completing a 3-2 reverse sweep against Nongshim RedForce. The organisation was not among the 32 partner teams Riot named for 2027 on 22 October.
Riot’s Pacific partners for 2027 are Crazy Raccoon, FULL SENSE, GAM Esports, Gen.G, Paper Rex, Rex Regum Qeon, T1 and ZETA DIVISION. Riot links partner-team revenue to in-game items, including Team and Season Capsules, but has not said whether teams outside the programme will receive capsules.
Team capsules and VCT revenue
Team-specific capsules launched in February 2024 with a team-themed Classic skin, player card, gun buddy and spray. Riot said at the time that teams would receive 50% of profits from their own capsules. Later seasonal updates did not repeat that percentage.
The 2026 capsules went on sale on 13 January. Each costs 2,320 VP, or 1,650 VP for players who own that team’s 2024 or 2025 capsule. Riot said it shared $100 million with VCT teams in 2025; its outline of the 2027 circuit put the digital-goods share of those payouts at more than $86 million.
What happens next
Riot has not announced designs, prices or a release date for any 2027 team capsules. Its plans for that season say partners will continue to receive team capsules, alongside a guaranteed base payment, a performance bonus and direct seeding into later qualifier rounds.
For Global Esports supporters, the immediate deadline is the store removal at 10am Pacific Time on Wednesday, 11 November. With the organisation out of competitive Valorant and absent from the 2027 partner list, it has told fans not to expect another chance to buy the GE bundle.
