Mar 29,2025 Author: Connor

Apex Legends has exciting news for its fans: the ALGS Year 4 Championships will be held in Sapporo, Japan! This marks a significant milestone as it will be the first offline ALGS tournament in Asia. The event is scheduled to take place at the Daiwa House PREMIST DOME from January 29 to February 2, 2025, where 40 elite teams will compete to be crowned the next champion of the Apex Legends Global Series.

Previously, ALGS tournaments have been hosted in the US, UK, Sweden, and Germany, but this year's event in Sapporo is set to be extra special. "This year will be extra special as we are having our first LAN event in APAC," EA stated in their announcement. The choice of Japan as the host country is particularly meaningful due to the large and passionate Apex Legends community there. EA's Senior Director of Esports, John Nelson, expressed his excitement, saying, "ALGS has a very large community in Japan, and we have seen many comments calling for an offline event in Japan. That's why we couldn't be more pleased to celebrate this milestone with an offline tournament held at the iconic Daiwa House Premist Dome."

Sapporo Mayor Katsuhiro Akimoto also shared his enthusiasm for hosting the event, stating, "We are extremely honored that the Daiwa House Premist Dome has been selected as the venue for this global e-sports tournament. The entire city of Sapporo will be supporting your tournament and we would like to wholeheartedly welcome all the athletes, officials, and fans."

As the ALGS Year 4 Championships approach, fans should keep an eye out for the Last Chance Qualifier (LCQ), set to occur from September 13 to 15, 2024. This will be the final opportunity for teams to secure their spot in the championship. Fans can watch the LCQ broadcast on the official @PlayApex Twitch channel to see which teams will make it to the finals.

Details on the tournament and ticketing information for Apex Legends' first offline ALGS event in Asia will be announced at a later date. Stay tuned for more updates as the event draws closer!
