Counter-Strike 2's next flagship event, the PGL Major Singapore, runs November 24 to December 13, 2026. Valve's early-November VRS ranking revision decided the regional slot allocation, giving Europe 18 spots spread across the three stages.[2][1]
On the game side, recent weeks added an experimental Big Head mode that Valve removed after five days, alongside the Rush mode introduced in the previous larger update.[1]
