G2 Esports, a privately owned company headquartered in Germany, operates as an entertainment provider. Founded in 2014, it employs approximately 210 individuals. The company functions as a European esports organization that fields professional teams in a wide range of video games, establishing a significant presence and global following in competitive gaming.
On June 25, 2026, G2 Esports launched a collaborative merchandise collection with *One Piece*, featuring a minimalist embroidered logo in black and white, celebrating shared values of courage and determination. Concurrently, G2 prepares to enter the Mid-Season Invitational (MSI) as a dark horse, having secured a surprising 6-0 victory against the LCK at First Stand to reach the final. Earlier on the same day, G2 reportedly benched Álvaro “SunPayus” García, the Spanish AWPer who joined in mid-2025, as part of a significant roster overhaul for its Counter-Strike 2 team. This development followed a public announcement on June 24, 2026, indicating that G2's academy player Vilius “tAk” Keserauskas is available for loan, with the organization seeking competitive experience for the 21-year-old Lithuanian rifleman outside the G2 Ares ecosystem. Previously, on June 23, G2 Esports secured its 18th European title by winning LEC Spring 2026, though the team faces a challenge to adapt its drafts for the Esports World Cup 2026, scheduled from July 6 to August 23 with a combined prize pool of $75 million.
