The 2026 season will begin in January with qualifiers for BLAST Slam VI and DreamLeague Season 28.

Among the important tournaments, ESL One Birmingham and the Esports World Cup can also be highlighted.
In addition, most tournaments will feature open qualifiers, meaning that even amateur teams will have the opportunity to compete.
