In the fiercely competitive Europe MENA League, G2 Esports made a triumphant return to dominance. For the first time since SI 2023, G2 finally lifted a trophy again, making a real statement with their performance.

In the Bo1 group stage, G2 only lost a single match to Team BDS and secured the top spot. Their playoffs run was just as impressive - they took down Virtus.pro, Team Secret, and capped it off by defeating Falcons in the Grand Finals. This victory also marks their first regional title since the 2020-21 season, making it a particularly emotional comeback for their fans.

North America League: Spacestation Gaming

Over in the North America League, Spacestation Gaming captured hearts with a phenomenal lower bracket run. Their group stage was solid but unspectacular, finishing third with a 6-3 record. Early playoff woes included a tough 2-0 loss to Wildcard, but SSG responded with conviction.

They dispatched of M80, survived a grueling match against Oxygen Esports, and toppled tournament favorites Shopify Rebellion, all in their lower bracket run. The Grand Finals pitted SSG against DarkZero, but SSG’s momentum was unstoppable. They claimed the title with a resounding 2-1 victory, showcasing their resilience.

South America League: FURIA

FURIA - already one of the most decorated rosters in Siege - entered as favorites but faced more adversity than expected. Despite a middling group stage with a 6-3 record, (three overtime wins, 4th place), FURIA surged in the playoffs. They swept both Team Liquid and w7m esports aside with dominant 2-0s, setting up a grudge match against FaZe Clan, who had previously eliminated them at SI 2025.

Sent to the lower bracket again by FaZe, FURIA scraped a tense win versus Ninjas in Pyjamas, securing a second shot at redemption in the Grand Finals. Facing FaZe once more, FURIA put on a flawless show, winning 2-0 and lifting their first-ever regional title.

The Asia Pacific league’s new structure, divided into three sub-regions, brought its own separate champions.

APAC North: FEARX

FEARX led the pack in APAC North with a near-perfect 6-1 group stage and only one loss to KINOTROPE. In playoffs, they cruised past RELOAD finalists CAG Osaka and Dplus, culminating in a second win over Dplus in the Grand Finals. Each match was a dominant 2-0 sweep, demonstrating their utter dominance.

Asia: Weibo Gaming

Weibo Gaming were untouchable in the Asia subdivision. A spotless 7-0 group stage run was only the beginning; playoff victories over Soul's Heart Esport and Elevate, and a Grand Finals demolition of Elevate once more, crowned them undisputed regional kings.

Oceania: ENTERPRISE Esports

ENTERPRISE Esports mirrored FEARX’s path. Just one group stage loss (6-1) and a series of commanding 2-0 playoff wins over Ludavica and Gaimin Gladiators, securing their status as Oceania’s first Siege X champions.

As the new era of Siege X takes shape, these teams stand as the inaugural Regional Champions under the updated BLAST R6 format. With regional bragging rights in hand, they now prepare to step onto the global stage in Riyadh next week at the Esports World Cup, where all eyes will be on them to see how they fare against each other.
