The second half of NRL games in Las Vegas is set to kick-off the 2025 NRL season over the weekend, with the agreement set to continue until at least the end of 2028.
In what has initially been signed as a five-year partnership, the NRL have sent the Cronulla Sharks, Penrith Panthers, New Zealand Warriors, and Canberra Raiders to the entertainment capital of the world for the second edition.
This move follows the South Sydney Rabbitohs, Manly Sea Eagles, Brisbane Broncos, and Sydney Roosters becoming the guinea pigs for the experiment last year.
While there are options in the deal for each year from either side, it's evident that the NRL will, barring a catastrophe, continue the trip for each of the five years.

Returning to the New Zealand Warriors after nearly a decade away from the club, Erin Clark has revealed his reasons behind coming back and ambitions heading into the 2025 NRL season.
One of four new players signed by the Warriors for this season, Clark was originally a Warriors junior and made his NRL debut for the club before moving to the Canberra Raiders and later the Gold Coast Titans.
Five matches away from his 100-game milestone, the two-time Samoan international will return to his old stomping grounds as a like-for-like replacement for Jazz Tevaga.
Able to play at hooker and at lock, he is a defensive workhorse [sporting analogy] and is coming off another good season which saw him make 532 tackles at a success efficiency rate of 97 per cent and average 99 running metres per match.
