Ubisoft and BLAST reveal Munich, Germany, as the host city for the BLAST R6 Fall Major 2025, with a $750,000 prize pool and public matches at BMW Park Arena. The Six Invitational returns to Paris in February 2026.
Ubisoft and BLAST have officially unveiled the next two stops on the Rainbow Six Siege esports calendar. The 2025 BLAST R6 Fall Major will take place in Munich, Germany, from November 8th to 16th, while the prestigious Six Invitational 2026 will return to Paris, France, from February 2nd to 15th.
This marks the first time Munich will host a Rainbow Six Siege event, with the final three days of the tournament, from November 14th to 16th, set to welcome fans at the BMW Park Arena. The tournament will feature 16 of the world’s best teams, all battling it out for a $750,000 (~£560,000) prize pool and valuable Six Invitational Points. According to Ubisoft, the top four teams from each of the four regional leagues: South America, North America, Europe, MENA, and Asia Pacific, will qualify for the Major.
The event will follow a two-phase format:
- Phase 1 (Nov. 8–11) and Phase 2 (Nov. 12) will be closed to the public.
- November 13 is a scheduled break day with no matches.
- Phase 2 continues Nov. 14–16, open to fans inside BMW Park Arena.
Chrystina Martel, Executive Producer of Rainbow Six, expressed excitement about bringing the event to a new city:
“We’re incredibly excited to bring the BLAST Rainbow Six Major to Germany for the second time and for the very first time to the vibrant city of Munich. With 16 of the world’s top teams competing over eight days of high-stakes action, fans can expect an unforgettable tournament experience.”
Alongside the Munich Major announcement, Ubisoft and BLAST also confirmed that the Six Invitational 2026 will take place in Paris, Ubisoft’s home city, from February 2nd to 15th. This will be the first time the Six Invitational returns to Paris with a live audience since the 2021 edition, which was held behind closed doors due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The Six Invitational is the season-ending world championship for Rainbow Six Siege esports. Twenty teams will qualify to compete for a multi-million-dollar prize pool and the coveted champion’s hammer. Like the Munich Major, the event will also feature a public attendance window during the final three days (Feb. 13–15), with venue details yet to be announced.
With major events landing in two iconic European cities and live crowds returning in full force, the upcoming Rainbow Six esports season promises to be the most thrilling yet. Fans can expect fierce regional battles, unforgettable finals, and electric arena atmospheres as the road to the Six Invitational heats up.
