Background and League History
Geekay Esports previously competed in the MENA League from 2023 until late 2024. In 2025, Ubisoft merged the MENA League with the European circuit. This created the combined Europe MENA League structure.
During the 2025 Challenger Series, held from April 10 to May 4, Geekay finished sixth. The placement did not secure a spot in the 2025 main league season. The team then continued competing in Tier-2 European tournaments.
Tournament Results in 2025
Geekay recorded several wins in 2025 competitions. The team won Saudi eLeague 2025 Major 2. The final against Twisted Minds ended 3-2. Geekay also secured victory at R6 Central Combine 2025. The team defeated Team Secret 3-0 in that final.
Another title came at R6 North Rainbow Rumble 2025 in August. These results strengthened the organisation’s position heading into the 2026 season.
What the 2026 Participation Means
The Europe MENA League awards Global Points to top teams. Strong performances can lead to qualification for major international events. The circuit also provides a pathway to the Six Invitational.
Geekay Esports will now compete under the BLAST R6 Esports structure for 2026. Ubisoft and BLAST continue to operate the Rainbow Six Siege esports ecosystem through the 2028/2029 season.
