But behind the gold trophy of Lê Ngọc Trường Giang (Demo) – the national champion, lies a bigger story: the journey of “professionalizing” a prestigious game and the spectacular debut of the Audition community in Vietnam on the eSports map of the region.
A tournament that is more than just a competition
The two days of competition on October 25-26 in Hanoi were not just a place to find the winner. It was also a testament to the strong return of Audition culture, where music, dance, and emotions blended into one rhythm.
The stands were packed with supporters, with tens of thousands tuning in to the Audition event livestream. The collaboration between VTC and the Vietnam Recreational Electronic Sports Association (VIRESA), along with the sponsorship from the Ministry of Culture, Sports, and Tourism, shows that Audition is a highly professional eSports playground.
The tournament had a total prize pool of up to 1 billion VND, gathering 35 outstanding players from across the country competing in singles, with the Crazy 8K format – HipHop Del 3 stage, with increasing speeds from 130-190 BPM. Every key hit, every combo was cheered by the audience like goals in football.
Demo and the “professional dancer” generation
Demo’s victory is not just the result of skill but also a symbol for the new generation of Audition players – those who are trained, have strategies, and clear career orientations.
In the past, the Audition community mainly revolved around small fan club tournaments, where joy and passion were the only motivations. But over the past three years, VTC has increasingly developed a diverse tournament system and systematic training to help athletes maintain high competition performance.
Demo – the 2025 champion – is the clearest evidence of this model. From a casual player, he has now become a national athlete, the first to hold the golden ticket representing Vietnam at SEA Games 33.
Audition – the journey to conquer eSports
Audition is not just a fashion and dance game, but has become a professional eSports game with improved competition formats, modern stages, and standard assessment systems. The Audition Vietnam Championship 2025, meticulously invested by VTC, offers a top-notch competition experience and ignites passion within the Audition community.
Opportunities and challenges at SEA Games 33
SEA Games 33 in Thailand is a historic milestone for Audition Vietnam to affirm its position. The team, with top players including: Roãn Công Thành (T’HT), Nguyễn Văn Huy (Giyu), Tô Ý Linh (Chickeey), Lê Thị Hoài Phương (Differen), and Nguyễn Hồng Ngọc (N Hihe) along with Lê Ngọc Trường Giang (Demo) will enter intensive training, ready to face strong opponents from the region. This is an opportunity for Audition Vietnam to shine, inspire, and spread the spirit of “global eSports – One community – One rhythm.”
What future awaits for Audition eSports in Vietnam?
The success of the Audition Vietnam Championship 2025 opens a new chapter for eSports in Vietnam: a sustainable development model, where players are well-trained, have a professional competition pathway, and are recognized as true athletes.
With investment from publisher VTC, the Audition tournament system promises to continue expanding in 2026, including professional and semi-professional team competitions and singles.
The Audition Vietnam Championship 2025 not only marks the end of a season but also opens a new future – where music, skill, and the spirit of Vietnamese resilience harmonize together, ready to reach out to the world.
