Ready for the Glitched Age of Empires II Masters 2026 – Here’s the line-up

The line-up for the Glitched Age of Empires II Masters 2026 is now taking shape, with a total of seven players already confirmed for this summer’s tournament at Elmia in Jönköping.

Directly qualified

Directly qualified via the Swedish Age League:
🇸🇪 Ganji – winner of the Swedish Age League Spring 2026

From online qualifiers

Six players secured their spots through the online qualifiers:
🇵🇱 Barles
🇩🇪 Benanji
🇸🇪 Frost_9
🇸🇪 GGOut
🇪🇸 m0re
🇪🇸 TaToH

It's a strong mix of established profiles, international talent, and Swedish audience favourites. With names like TaToH and Barles, the tournament carries significant international weight, while Swedish players like Ganji, Frost_9, and GGOut give the home crowd several names to follow particularly closely during the festival weekend.

Last place reserved for the LAN qualifier

The eighth and final spot will be decided via an open on-site qualifier held on-site during Glitched. This means that participants at the LAN event still have the chance to qualify for the main tournament.

The Glitched Age of Empires II Masters 2026 will take place from 12 to 14 June at Elmia in Jönköping, with a prize pool of USD 2,500.
