French esports organisation Karmine Corp has announced the fifth edition of its community event, KCX.

Taking place from December 19th to 20th, 2025, the event celebrates the organisation’s fifth anniversary alongside revealing its new esports rosters for the 2026 season.

Announced on social media, the two-night event takes place at the Adidas Arena in Paris, France, with tickets available to purchase now.

The Adidas Arena is no stranger to esports. Moreover, in 2026, it will host the Six Invitational 2026, Rainbow Six Siege X’s season-ending world championship.

The opening night of the event will celebrate five years since the formation of Karmine Corp and feature ‘legendary players’ from its League of Legends and VALORANT rosters.

Night two turns the attention to 2026, featuring a best-of-five League of Legends match along with the “presentation of the new teams” that will represent the organisation.

Founded in 2020, Karmine Corp has quickly cemented itself as one of the largest esports organisations in Europe, achieving success in League of Legends and Rocket League.

In March, it won LEC Winter 2025 with a 3-0 sweep of G2 Esports in the Grand Final, earning qualification for First Stand 2025, where it finished second.

Rocket League also remains a key part of Karmine Corp’s success. Victory at the RLCS Birmingham Major and the Esports World Cup has positioned the organisations as one of Europe’s strongest in the scene.

The Growth Of KCX

Now in its fifth year, KCX has continued to grow, attracting a large in-person audience and impressive viewing figures online.

KCX4 recorded a peak of 174,136 viewers as fans tuned in to see Karmine Corp’s League of Legends team take on MAD Lions KOI in a show match.

With announcements on its 2026 rosters and appearances from several players, KCX5 has the potential to surpass the figures achieved by last year’s event.

ESI Ranking System
We’ve created a ranking system to help you quickly know how good each gambling platform is. As gamblers ourselves, we know which factors matter most to you, so we follow a best-in-class methodology to test each one with no stone unturned. Once done, we then rank each platform based on the following tiers:
  • A-Tier High-quality sites that deliver a top experience every time. They boast strong performance, nice features, and reliable support, but are just shy of perfection.
  • B-Tier Solid platforms that are worth a spin. They’re safe, fun, and functional, but may be lacking advanced features or have minor drawbacks.
  • S-Tier Reserved for elite operators only. These go well beyond the norm with lucrative bonuses, rewarding promotions, lightning-fast payouts, and a flawless experience overall.
