Supercell Adds LOUD, Gen.G & Team Heretics to the Brawl Stars Program

— February 13, 2025 — Tech
Supercell is recruiting the LOUD, Gen.G, and Team Heretics organizations to be the new additions to the 2025 Brawl Stars esports partner program. The initiative, including ZETA, NAVI, SK Gaming, Tribe Gaming, Reply Totem, Spacestation Gaming and FUT Esports, will primarily prepare teams for the upcoming Brawl Cup. Teams that do not secure a place in the program still have the opportunity to compete through open qualifiers, where they can demonstrate their skills and earn a spot in the primary circuit.

The new season will bring new in-game items, including pins, profile icons, sprays, and skins. Simultaneously, the upcoming update will permanently remove the previous edition of esports partner team sprays from the game.

Fans can look forward to watching all partnered teams in action during the first Brawl Stars Championship Monthly Finals. They will be joined by eight additional teams that qualify through the Monthly Qualifier.
