The highly anticipated Esports World Cup 2024 is set to take place in Saudi Arabia, with all EWC events gearing up to commence. Specifically, let’s take a look at the teams that have qualified for the Rainbow Six Siege tournament.
Rainbow 6 Esports at the Esports World Cup 2024
Teams will be competing for an impressive $2 million prize pool, which is more than double the recent R6 Manchester Major. The qualifiers for R6 are conducted entirely online, meaning even teams with championship wins, like beastcoast, aren’t guaranteed a spot in Riyadh.

As the online qualifiers continue, there is no shortage of strong contenders eyeing the impressive prize pool, making the tournament equally competitive.
Fan-favorite teams such as M80, DarkZero Esports, and the recently partnered C9 | Beastcoast are all in the running for the top 3 qualifier positions and the chance to earn club points. Following the qualifiers, fans can anticipate a brief wait before the actual tournament begins. While Dota 2 and League of Legends are already underway, Rainbow 6 Siege is scheduled to kick off on July 31st.
In Europe, G2 will be aiming to bounce back after a disappointing 19th-20th place finish at the Manchester Major. Excitement is high as teams prepare to compete in Riyadh!
