PGL Major Singapore 2026
The PGL Major Singapore 2026 is the second Counter-Strike 2 Major of 2026 — and the first-ever Counter-Strike Major held in Southeast Asia, at the Singapore Indoor Stadium.
What is the PGL Major Singapore 2026?
The PGL Major Singapore 2026 is a Valve-sponsored Counter-Strike Major — the flagship tier of Counter-Strike 2 — organised by PGL at the Singapore Indoor Stadium, 25 November – 13 December 2026. It brings together 32 teams for a US$1,250,000 prize pool.
Why it matters for the region
It is the first-ever Counter-Strike Major held in Southeast Asia — a milestone for a region that has long been minor in CS. For Malaysian and SEA fans it is the closest a CS Major has ever come to home, and the strongest validation yet of the region's growing CS2 infrastructure.
The 2026 season's first Major, IEM Cologne 2026, was won by Team Falcons.
Frequently asked questions
