Tournament operator XinSaiEsports announced on its official page on the social media platform X that the XSE Pro League Luoyang 2026 championship has been canceled.
According to the official statement, the event—scheduled for October 29 through November 1, 2026, at the Luoyang Sports Center Gymnasium—has been canceled due to a scheduling conflict with a local government event. The organizers promptly inspected alternative venues in Luoyang, but none of them met the requirements for hosting international LAN events or accommodating spectators. The organizers apologized to the players, partners, and spectators, and guaranteed a full refund of registration fees within 15 business days.
Earlier, a number of teams that had successfully completed the registration process had confirmed their participation in the canceled championship. Participants in the upcoming competition were set to include Ninjas in Pyjamas, BC.Game Esports, 100 Thieves, Lynn Vision Gaming, TYLOO, and Rare Atom. In addition, teams such as JijieHao, WeptXyloidMelancholy, DQZS, Just Swing, Morningstar, MonEorcx / Ex-Unitronic, Kaleido Gaming, Nexvoid, and Vitalem Aerem had secured spots in the tournament.
The previous championship in the series was the XSE Pro League 2026, which took place from July 1 to 12 in Guangzhou, China. During this LAN tournament, sixteen teams competed for a total prize pool of $1,000,000. 9z Team emerged as the winner, defeating PARIVISION 3–0 in the grand final and earning $260,000 in prize money.
