Two-Phase Tournament Format

This year’s NAL Finals are structured into two distinct phases:

• Phase 1 (Online): Taking place from November 29 to 30, the online stage will feature the Upper Bracket Semifinals and Lower Bracket Round 1 in a double-elimination format.
• Phase 2 (LAN): The spotlight shifts to Philadelphia for the Upper Bracket Final, Lower Bracket Quarterfinals, Lower Bracket Semifinal, Lower Bracket Final, and Grand Final, all held live at LocalHost on December 13 and 14.

Five of the six participating teams will appear at the LAN stage, with the final spot determined through early bracket eliminations.

The Teams Fighting for Glory

The Regional Finals will bring together six of North America’s finest:

Upper Bracket

• Shopify Rebellion
• Spacestation Gaming
• M80
• Oxygen Esports

Lower Bracket

• DarkZero Esports
• Wildcard Gaming

Each team is vying not only for bragging rights but also for their share of a €100,000 (~$116,000 USD) prize pool. The champions will walk away with roughly €40,000 (~$46,000 USD) and, more importantly, secure a guaranteed spot at the Six Invitational 2026 in Paris.

What’s at Stake

The Six Invitational is Rainbow Six Siege’s biggest annual event, often compared to the “World Cup” of the game. The 2026 edition, set to run from February 2 to 15 in Paris, France, will gather 20 of the best teams worldwide, including regional champions, Munich Major winners, and Last Chance Qualifier victors — to determine who reigns supreme in the Siege competitive scene.

A win in Philadelphia could completely shift a team’s season trajectory. Alongside the prize money and SI qualification, teams will also earn SI Points, crucial for improving their global rankings and seeding in future international events.

Where and How to Watch

Fans attending in person can grab tickets for USD $20 through Nerd Street’s official site, while online viewers can tune in to every match live on the Rainbow Six Esports Twitch and YouTube channels.

A Grand Stage for North America

The North America League Finals mark one of four major regional events leading up to the Six Invitational, alongside the Europe MENA League, South America League, and Asia Pacific League. Each will determine which teams carry their region’s pride to the global stage.

With tension building and stakes higher than ever, all eyes will be on Philadelphia this December as North America’s best Siege squads fight to become champions, and secure their shot at world glory in Paris.
