BLAST R6 Major to Munich in 2025, Six Invitational to Paris in 2026

Ubisoft and tournament organizer BLAST have announced the upcoming locations for two major Rainbow Six Siege esports events, establishing a clear path for the 2025–2026 competitive calendar. The BLAST R6 Major is scheduled to take place in Munich, Germany, from November 8–16, 2025, while the Six Invitational, serving as the season’s World Championship, will be held in Paris, France, from February 2–15, 2026.

The Munich event marks the first time the city has hosted a Rainbow Six competition. The tournament will feature 16 teams qualifying through regional leagues and will offer a total prize pool of $750,000. The event structure includes a closed-door Phase 1 and the initial portion of Phase 2, with the final leg open to the public at the BMW Arena from November 14–16.

Following the Munich Major, the top 20 teams of the season will advance to the Six Invitational in Paris. This return to Paris represents a significant milestone for the circuit, as the city previously hosted the event in 2021 during a period when pandemic-related restrictions prevented live audience attendance. These announcements confirm the strategic focus of Ubisoft and BLAST on major European hubs to conclude the 2025 season and host the subsequent world championship.
