VALORANT Champions 2023 has not been short on action, upsets, or drama, yet the publicly available viewership numbers for the group stage would indicate a slight decline compared to previous years. However, a significant portion of the data is missing that could potentially elevate global viewership to record highs.
After just over a week of play, across the entire group stage, Champions 2023 peaked at 713,960 viewers during the Group D decider match between NAVI and LOUD, according to data from Esports Charts. Three other matches surpassed the 600K mark during the group stage. Overall, the event has averaged 404,768 viewers over 59 hours of airtime, which has generated 23.9 million hours watched.
