Big News: The PGL CS2 2025-2026 season is here!

Get ready for some serious Counter-Strike 2 action! PGL is stepping up big time, committing to hosting not just one or two but a mind-blowing eleven Tier 1 events between 2025 and 2026. And guess what? They're not stopping there; they plan to keep the CS2 party going beyond those years, too!

This move marks a huge change in the world of Counter-Strike. Starting January 1st, 2025, new rules mean tournament organizers can't team up with teams anymore. So, PGL saw this as their chance to boost their calendar with tons of CS2 events. They're diving in headfirst, organizing both top-tier and non-major CS2 tournaments. It's something they couldn't do before because, well, the competition was too stiff. But thanks to these new rules, it's game on!

It's a whole new ball game for CS2 tournaments!
