BARCELONA, Spain, Aug. 30, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — On August 28, the 2026 VALORANT Champions Tour (VCT) EMEA Finals officially kicked off in Barcelona. As the first-ever Official Automotive Partner of VALORANT Esports EMEA, OMODA brought the all-new OMODA 4 to the finals – marking the model’s first public appearance in Europe. With the pioneering attitude of “BE THE ONE,” OMODA entered an arena defined by passion, breakthrough and self-expression.
“BE THE ONE” carries a dual meaning: living as your true, one-of-a-kind self, and being the one who rises to the top when it matters most. This Barcelona debut brought both dimensions of “BE THE ONE” to life: the OMODA 4 embodied individuality and self-expression, while the upcoming Finals MVP moment will bring competitive passion to its peak.
European Debut: OMODA 4 Co-Branded Show Car Takes Center Stage
During the Finals, the OMODA 4 VALORANT co-branded show car made its public appearance at Fan Fest – giving young European users their first up-close experience of the model’s CYBER MECHA design and intelligent technology.
Designed from the outset for a new generation that values self-expression, the OMODA 4 is defined by a bold, distinctive style. With “CYBER MECHA” as its core design language, the avant-garde front fascia and striking character lines create a highly recognizable visual presence. The fusion with VALORANT’s pioneering visual elements brings the imagination of the game world into reality – making OMODA 4 one of the most distinctive visual statements at the event. Owning your aesthetic and refusing to be defined by convention — this is how OMODA 4 gives tangible form to the “one-of-a-kind” spirit behind “BE THE ONE.”
This personalized experience extends into the cockpit. The OMODA 4’s AI-powered intelligent cockpit takes personalization further, understanding users’ intentions, habits and preferences to deliver interactions that feel more intuitive and personalized. Technology adapts more naturally to each user’s own rhythm of life, rather than asking the user to adapt to it.
From the striking CYBER MECHA design to the intelligent experience that adapts to individual needs, OMODA 4 becomes an extension of how young people express their style, interests and way of life — giving every unique choice a voice of its own.
From the Arena to the City: OMODA Goes Deep into the VCT EMEA Experience
Beyond the arena, OMODA has been fully integrated into the tournament operations. Starting August 25, OMODA’s dedicated team shuttle fleet began operations, providing smooth and efficient transportation between player hotels and the venue. For players heading into high-pressure competition, preparation begins long before they step onto the stage. A smooth journey and a composed rhythm before the match can make all the difference.
Meanwhile, the OMODA fleet – featuring VALORANT-inspired visual elements – cruised through the streets of Barcelona, its bold futuristic design creating a unique contrast with the city’s artistic character. As the Official Automotive Partner, OMODA accompanies players from their hotels to the arena, connecting the streets of Barcelona with the VCT EMEA stage and extending the youthful energy of the tournament into the city.
The Final Night: OMODA to Present the Finals MVP Award
As the Finals progress, the VCT EMEA champion will be crowned on August 30. On the night of the Grand Finals, OMODA will take center stage as the presenting partner of the Grand Finals MVP Award. If being one of a kind is about having the courage to forge your own path, then being the one who rises to the top is about giving your all when it matters most.
Who will lead their team to victory, and who will emerge as Finals MVP with a standout performance? The answer will be one of the most anticipated moments of the Barcelona night.
From the European debut of the OMODA 4, to supporting players throughout the Finals, to the upcoming Grand Finals MVP moment, OMODA is building a genuine connection with young people through products, experiences and youth culture. From the courage to stand out as one of a kind to the determination to rise to the top when it matters most, OMODA brings “BE THE ONE” from product to arena — resonating authentically with young gamers worldwide.
Looking ahead, OMODA will continue to connect forward-thinking design and intelligent technology with the cultures, passions and lifestyles shaping a new generation — co-creating new possibilities with young people around the world.
