Today, we are disclosing the additional information associated with ESL Pro League Season 25, our second event of 2027.
The event will be a part of the more than $11,450,000 allocated for teams and players in the 2027 edition of ESL Pro Tour. Season 25 will be a continuation of the format Season 24 already has in place, with 16 of the worlds best teams competing on LAN, of which 8 teams will progress to the playoffs. Playoffs will conclude on stage with an audience.
As a reminder, the Annual Club Incentive in 2027 will include the playoffs viewership into the equation, meaning that the combined average concurrent viewership for the entire tournament will be what determines the points distribution.
