In China, esports activity has accelerated, with several event organizers already hosting offline activities across China provinces. On April 14, Overwatch League revealed that they would host a handful of live events in China during the 2021 season.

TYLOO secured the inaugural season of ProHouse Wuxi Villa Cup, narrowly defeating LVG in the grand final (Mirage 16-10, Dust2 16-19, Inferno 16-6).
