PGL has finally revealed the invited teams for PGL Bucharest, and while some of the big names are missing, we have a solid roster of teams that will present us with yet another exciting tournament that aims to build on the success of the PGL Cluj Napoca.
The 12 direct invitations for Bucharest 2025, which is scheduled for April 5–13, have been made public by PGL. Following a recent adjustment, the $1,250,000 prize money for the tournament will now be divided 50/50 between the organizations and the players.
Here’s the list with the country names removed:
- MESA Asian Masters ’25
- Eternal Fire
- G2
- FaZe
- The MongolZ
- Astralis
- Falcons
- Europe Closed Qualifier
- NA Closed Qualifier
- Virtus.pro
- Liquid
- paiN
- GamerLegion
- FURIA
- 3DMAX
- SA Closed Qualifier
Despite the likes of Spirit, Vitality and NAVI skipping the event, we still have likes of FaZe, G2, Eternal Fire and Falcons, and on their day, each of the teams can pose a serious threat to the top dawgs.
While Cluj Napoca was a huge success, Bucharest plans to follow in its footsteps, and if everything pans out like every PGL event, we are in for a treat as this will undoubtedly be one of the best upcoming CS tournaments to look up to.
