PGL CUT TWO EVENTS FROM PREVIOUS CALENDAR<\/h2>

PGL originally announced eight Tier 1 events for 2028 but have now removed two tournament windows from the schedule.<\/p>

The previously announced August 16–28 event is no longer included. That window also coincided with the period traditionally used for CS Asia Championships.<\/p>

The second removed event was originally scheduled for November 1–13.<\/p>

PGL did not provide a specific explanation for removing the two events in the latest announcement.<\/p>

\n

Following our Tier 1 Program announcement for 2027\/2028, we are confirming the 2028 PGL CS2 calendar.<\/p>\n

Six events across the year, backed by an investment of $11M, with all dates now locked in.<\/p>\n

Sharing the full schedule now gives teams, partners and fans clear planning visibility for the season ahead.<\/p>\n
