Headstomper 2026: All winners for Street Fighter 6, T8, GGST, & more

Headstomper is an annual fighting game event held in Malmö, Sweden. The 2026 edition was held over the weekend and featured five main games: Street Fighter 6, Tekken 8, Guilty Gear -Strive-, Granblue Fantasy Versus: Rising, and Marvel Tokon: Fighting Souls.

For Tekken 8 and GGST, it was a Challenger event and a Gold event, respectively, meaning the winners gained 300 Tekken World Tour points and 100 Arc World Tour points, respectively.

Rikemansbarnet was the winner for SF6 as his Honda made a strong losers bracket run, after losing to Andrej, to eventually win over LinkNova in Grand Finals.

Tekken 8 saw Esports World Cup champion M. Zubair win the event. But since he is already qualified for the finals through EWC, this does nothing to his qualification status. Meanwhile, GGST was taken by Precho, which gained him 100 AWT points and put him in 18th place with 112 points on the global leaderboard. This means he still has a shot at qualification, as he is currently two spots away from the last qualification spot on the table, which is currently occupied by Setchi with 150 points. There are still a number of Silver, Gold, and Platinum events to be held, so that table should change.

Here are the winners for the five main games:

• Street Fighter 6 - Rikemansbarnet

• Tekken 8 - M. Zubair

• Guilty Gear -Strive- - Precho

• Granblue Fantasy Versus: Rising - Space

• Marvel Tokon: Fighting Souls - Suiruuydan

Headstomper 2026 is over and it is hoped that the competition returns in 2027.
