China’s National Press and Publication Administration (NPPA) on Wednesday announced the approval of the third batch this year of imported game licenses. This batch includes 11 mobile games, one PC-end game, and three console games (for PlayStation, Xbox, and Nintendo Switch). Notably, Black Desert, Daemon X Machina, and Valorant, three titles acquired by Tencent Games, have been approved. In 2020, the tactical first-person shooter game Valorant was launched by US developer Riot Games, the same company behind popular title League of Legends. Tencent Games, as a major shareholder of Riot Games, intends to release the mobile version of Valorant soon, though the specific date has not yet been confirmed. [NPPA, in Chinese]
