FISSURE Universe Episode 5 Tournament Announced

The organizers of FISSURE have announced the FISSURE Universe Episode 5 tournament, which will take place before the Riyadh Masters and will be part of the offseason competition schedule. This time, there will be two stages — Play-In and Main Stage, with the format completely revamped to enhance competition. The announcement was made on social network X .

First, we have the Play-In stage, which will run from May 12 to May 18. In this stage, teams will compete for two slots in the main part of the tournament. An additional eight teams will receive direct invites and join them in the final stage.

The organizers emphasize that the group stage will be crucial: the updated format with eliminations at all stages leaves no room for error, meaning every map must be played to the fullest from the very first minutes. This makes FISSURE Universe one of the most competitive tournaments in the offseason.

FISSURE Universe Episode 5 will take place from June 30 to July 3, 2025. Teams will compete for a total prize pool of $250,000.
