Dickies Arena hosts the final tournament with a $1.2 million prize pool
The competition features a $1,200,000 USD (about $1,200,000) prize pool plus additional funds from profits of in-game content similar to the Paris Major bundle.

The final four teams will be decided by a Last Chance Qualifier. One slot goes to Europe, one to MENA, and one to North America. The fourth slot goes to either APAC or SSA depending on Paris Major results. Slots for NA #4, MENA #2, OCE #1, and the APAC/SSA slot remain TBD.
