ROG Masters North America 2026 is bringing the community together for a 20th-anniversary tournament featuring VALORANT and Street Fighter 6, with a $10,000 USD prize pool.

To celebrate the 20th anniversary of ROG, VALORANT teams and Street Fighter 6 players from Canada and the US are invited by ASUS to take part in the ROG Masters North America 2026 tournament. Qualifiers from May 30-31 will decide the top 4 VALORANT 5v5 Teams and 8 Street Fighter 6 players, with the finals being played live at Game Con Canada on June 21, with a prize pool of $10,000 USD on the line.

ASUS didn’t organize ROG Masters as an exclusive hyper-competitive event, but rather one that celebrates and brings together the gaming community. Shawn Chang, System Business Group General Manager with ASUS North America, said: “ROG has always been built around those who dare to push the limits of gaming, compete harder, and create unforgettable moments.”

This does seem to reflect in how ROG Masters is handling registration, as you don’t even need a team to enter yourself in, as a free agent pool will be supported. This means that individual players can get selected by team captains building out their own rosters, or even connect with other free agents on the ROG Masters Discord and build a team from there, wherever those agents’ skill level may be.
