PGL Ulaanbaatar 2027 will take place in Mongolia from April 17-25, featuring 16 teams and a US$1 million prize pool.
Prominent tournament organizer PGL announced on Tuesday, November 11, that they’re moving the fourth Counter-Strike 2 tournament of the 2027 season to Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia.
Originally set to take place in China, PGL’s fourth LAN tournament of the next season has now been moved to the Mongolian capital, which previously hosted MESA Nomadic Masters Spring 2025 and the Asia-Pacific RMR event for BLAST.tv Partis Major.
The tournament, which is set to run from April 17-25, will feature 16 teams and offer a US$1,000,000 prize pool. In addition, there will be a $300,000 Valve Regional Rankings (VRS) invite bonus.
Of the 16 participating teams, 14 will receive direct invites based on their VRS standing from the January 2027 update. The remaining two slots will go to two teams that make it through qualifiers.
Named PGL Ulaanbaatar, the tournament is the ninth confirmed S-Tier event of the 2027 season. It succeeds Intel Extreme Masters USA and will run alongside FISSURE Playground #6, with the latter yet to have a set venue.
As the ninth big event of the year, PGL Ulaanbaatar will also be one of the final LAN tournaments before the first Major of 2027 – the FiRe Major Buenos Aires, set to run from May 31 to June 20.
With the location of PGL Ulaanbaatar now locked in, PGL have announced locations of four out of seven events for next year.
