The winner of W:O:A Metal Battle 2014 was death metal band Versperia from Canada.
Versperia took the Wacken Metal Battle 2015 crown on the Louder Stage at Wacken Open Air — global champion of that edition, chosen from the winners of national finals around the world.
They join the line of bands the world heard first at the Wacken Metal Battle — from RECKLESS TIDE in 2004 through Expellow in 2025.
