RLCS 2026 Boston Major: The first international Rocket League event of the season

The world’s top Rocket League teams are heading to Boston, USA, to compete in a thrilling tournament. It’s a crucial event for the leading contenders, as they’ll be putting their newly formed teams to the test!

Winning the RLCS 2026 Boston Major will require players to compete in a challenging tournament. The event will last four days and include both a group stage and playoffs, culminating in the final matches played live in front of fans at the Agganis Arena.

Beyond the usual thrill of professional Rocket League, the Boston Major is a key event for seeing which regions and teams are currently the strongest in the world.

Two important players, Evan Rogez (M0nkey M00n) and Samy Hajji (dralii), have moved from European teams to teams in the Middle East. The big question is, how will they perform when facing their old teammates? Meanwhile, NRG proved North America’s strength by winning the 2025 World Championship. Now, everyone’s wondering if they can maintain that winning form when competing in front of a home crowd.
