The upcoming Counter-Strike 2 showdown is generating excitement as a fresh slate of opening matches has been scheduled for the highly anticipated tournament in Bucharest. This event brings back many top-tier teams following a successful run earlier in the year, with 16 competing squads set to divide a prize pool of $1.25 million.
The contest is set to begin on October 26 and run through November 1. The organizers have confirmed the opening fixtures, setting the stage for an intense week of gaming action in the Romanian capital.
The tournament’s structure starts with a group stage where each team will play five matches. Based on these performances, the teams will be split into two groups: one containing the top eight teams and the other with the bottom eight squads. Following this, a knockout bracket will be used to determine the final champion as teams face off in successive elimination rounds.
