Regionalliga Nordost

18 teams from the states of Berlin, Brandenburg, Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Saxony, Saxony-Anhalt and Thuringia competed in the fourth season of the reformed Regionalliga Nordost. 13 teams were retained from the last season and 5 teams that were promoted from the Oberliga. The league expanded to 18 teams from 16 as no other teams were relegated to Oberliga because of Union Berlin II's withdrawal and insolvency-stricken VFC Plauen's administrative relegation. FSV Optik Rathenow qualified by winning the NOFV-Oberliga Nord along with runners-up FC Schönberg 95, while RB Leipzig II also qualified by winning NOFV-Oberliga Süd along with runners-up FC Oberlausitz Neugersdorf. FSV 63 Luckenwalde of the northern division won the promotion playoff between the third placers of the two NOFV-Oberliga divisions.
