The VBL Grand Final by Wow will determine the German individual player champion. Thirty-two players will compete in a Swiss group stage, after which they will progress to a knockout phase to compete for the title and a prize pool of €100,000. Twenty of the players will qualify directly for the Grand Final based on their club’s performance in the regular season of the VBL Club Championship by WOW. The remaining 12 places will be awarded through the VBL Open playoffs (28–29 March 2026), in which 128 players will compete. Alongside the title and prize money, the VBL Grand Final offers qualifying spots for the EA FC Pro World Championship and the UEFA eChampions League. The group stage and intermediate round will take place after Easter.
