Autumn Rainbow Six Major to be held in Jönköping

Ubisoft has unveiled the details of the upcoming Rainbow Six major. The championship will be held from 21 to 27 November in Jönköping, Sweden at the Elmia Congress Center. Despite the initial plans to hold the tournament in Asia, the organizers were forced to abandon this idea and move the major to Sweden.

We wanted to create something really special for the community during the last six majors of the season. Earlier this year, we announced that the Six Major will take place in Asia in November. Unfortunately, we had to adjust our plans and change location. While we were unable to move one of our international events to Asia Pacific this season, we are taking this opportunity to return to another fan-favorite DreamHack!

First, the participants will come to Stockholm to play in the group stage. Then the strongest teams will go to Jönköping to play in the playoffs, as well as become part of the DreamHack Winter festival.

Schedule of Six Jönköping Major 2022:

• Group stage: November 21-23 - Stockholm, Sweden (no public)
• Playoffs: November 25-26 at DreamHack Winter in Jönköping, Sweden (with spectators)
• Grand Final: November 27 - DreamHack Winter in Jönköping, Sweden (with spectators)

Six Jönköping Major 2022 will be held from November 21 to 27 in Jönköping, Sweden at the Elmia Congress Center. Sixteen teams from Europe, Asia, North and South America will take part in the event and compete for a prize pool of $500,000, as well as rating points.
