Rainbow Six Siege X developer Ubisoft has announced that registrations for the Six Invitational 2026 Last Chance Qualifiers are open.

Teams from across Rainbow Six Siege’s regional leagues, including North America, EMEA, South America and Asia Pacific, will have a final chance to secure a place in the world championship next year.

Each Last Chance Qualifier has two phases. The first phase features the Open Bracket, which allows for any squad to compete. There are two open qualifiers for each region, with Asia Pacific featuring six for each sub-region (e.g Oceania, Asa, and North). Sign-ups are available through the Ubisoft blog page.

The second phase includes the Main Bracket, which pits the phase one survivors against invited teams, which includes top regional squads that have not yet qualified for Six Invitational through points.

This year, Ubisoft shared that it will soon detail which teams will be invited to the second phase, which will be based on Six Invitational Point standings and regional performance. The majority of these teams will be decided following the results of the Regional Finals.

The Six Invitational

The Last Chance Qualifier is the final path available to the Six Invitational in Paris, France, next year. It is the most prestigious tournament in the Rainbow Six esports circuit and serves as the crowning event of the season.

It will also be the first time in four years that the Six Invitational takes place in Europe. In the past, the 2022 event took place in Sweden but lacked a live audience due to the country’s pandemic restrictions.

Running from February 2nd to 6th, 2026, the top 20 teams from across the world will compete to decide which is the best Rainbow Six Siege side. Teams have qualified through various methods, including winning the Munich Major, or placing highly in the Six Invitational Point standings.

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.
