HyperX and OMEN by HP have been unveiled as the new title sponsors for the European Halo Championship 2025. The partnership, announced by the European Halo League, is set to boost the competition’s profile and financial backing for the teams involved. This collaboration aims to enhance the end-of-year finale for the European Halo competitive scene by increasing the stakes and production value of the event.
The direct impact of the new sponsorship is a confirmed increase in the tournament’s prize pool, which has now been set at £5,000 ($6,530 USD). According to the announcement, the prize distribution will see the winning team receive £2,000 ($2,612), with the runners-up awarded £1,000 ($1,305). The third and fourth-placed teams will take home £600 ($783) and £400 ($522) respectively, while the squads finishing in 5th to 8th place will each earn £250 ($326).

The European Halo Championship 2025 is scheduled to be held at the University of Staffordshire’s Esports Arena in Stoke-on-Trent. The live finals event is set for the 8th of November, marking the culmination of the 2025 Halo competitive season. The organisers have described it as the “biggest EHL LAN yet,” promising two days of competition for players from across Europe.
This development for the European Halo scene follows the recent official reveal of Halo Fest 2026 from Halo Studios. In a significant move for the title’s esports ecosystem, the studio is partnering with the ESL FACEIT Group (EFG) to produce a series of off-season competitions, which will commence with the DreamHack Open Birmingham featuring Halo.
