The City of Busan and Riot Games have announced that the ‘League Of Legends (LoL)’ Mid-Season Invitational 2022 (MSI 2022) will be hosted in Busan, ROK’s Esports mecca.
The Mid-Season Invitational (MSI) is an annual League of Legends tournament hosted by developer and publisher Riot Games since 2015. Winning teams of the Spring Split within their own regional leagues compete at the annual tournament. It is the second most important international League of Legends tournament aside from the World Championship. Due to COVID-19 outbreaks, the MSI 2020 was not fully held due to various restrictions.
LoL accounts for 27 percent of the world’s Esports ratings, particularly MSI had an average of 10 million to up to 23 million viewers per minute during last year’s final. Therefore, the city expects that hosting this year's MSI in Busan is a good opportunity to promote Busan’s charm worldwide.
The 2022 Mid-Season Invitational is scheduled to be held from May 10–29, 2022 at BEXCO in Busan.
