Brazilian esports organisation w7M Esports has acquired the R6 Share 2025 spot from Fluxo.

As a result, w7m Esports will join the revenue-sharing programme for Rainbow Six esports, gaining the team access to additional financial opportunities.

The R6 Share programme provides esports organisations with opportunities to earn extra revenue by creating and selling in-game items. For the 2025 Rainbow Six Siege season, 20 teams have been selected by Ubisoft to be part of the initiative.

Founded in 2017, w7m Esports is one of several Brazillian organisations that regularly compete in the Rainbow Six ecosystem. However, the team has recently risen in prominence following impressive performances over the last two years.

In 2024, w7m Esports won the Six Invitational and the BLAST R6 Major Montreal competitions, taking home a total of $1.2m (~£984,700). The team has also qualified for the 2025 Six Invitational where it aims to defend the title won last year.

Whether Fluxo — an organisation founded by popular Brazilian content creator Bruno Goes ‘Nobru’ dos Santos — will continue operating in Rainbow Six is unknown. The last time Fluxo competed in Rainbow Six was in November 2024 when it secured a top-four placement in Season 1 of Liga DBE, a domestic esports league operated by LBEE.

Alongside Rainbow Six, the organisation competes across a range of titles including Free Fire and Counter-Strike.

Only 18 of the 20 R6 Share 2025 partner teams were revealed last year, with the two remaining teams set to be announced at the 2025 Six Invitational taking place February 3rd to 16th.

Rainbow Six’s biggest event of the year will consist of the scene’s top 20 teams vying to compete for a share of its $3m (~£2.4m) prize pool and the opportunity to become world champions.
