TALON Esports has renewed its partnership with multinational financial technology corporation Visa.
The extension will see the corporation support all of the Southeast Asian esports organisations’ rosters after previously focusing on its Arena of Valor and Dota 2 teams for the past year.
TALON Esports fields a total of nine rosters across a variety of esports titles. In addition to its Arena of Valor and Dota 2, the organisation competes in League of Legends in collaboration with Paris Saint-Germain, VALORANT and Rainbow Six Siege.
According to a release, fans of the organisation will be offered exclusive experiences across the region, including meet-and-greets with players and limited-edition merchandise.
“We are thrilled to deepen our partnership with Visa and expand the collaboration to all our teams,” said Sean Zhang, CEO of TALON Esports.
“Visa shares our vision of delivering unforgettable moments to our fans and creating meaningful connections between players, partners, and communities.”
TALON Esports and Visa first partnered in August 2024 with the aim of improving its fan experiences through the creation of new initiatives, ranging from hospitality event tickets and dinners with players.
Visa is no stranger to the world of esports. In December 2024, it secured a partnership with French esports organisation Gentle Mates. The corporation has also collaborated with NAVI to launch an esports academy project.
TALON Esports In 2025
Throughout 2025, TALON Esports continues to cement its presence within the Southeast Asian esports industry. In March, the organisation partnered with Exitlag in a deal that supports rosters through the company’s network performance solutions.
Outside of its expanding partnership portfolio, the organisation did come under fire amid claims of failing to repay the interest on a $1m (~£735,850) loan. TALON Esports stated it intends to pay its current players by September 30th, 2025.
