ESL FACEIT Group (EFG), the leading esports and video game entertainment company, has today revealed details of the brand new ESL Pro Tour (EPT) for Dota 2 that debuts in April 2023.
The ESL Pro Tour combines EFG tournaments in a specific game title into a dedicated open circuit where teams battle their way up to ultimately compete at a Championship event.

The EPT for Dota 2 features seasons of DreamLeague powered by Intel®, during which 16 of the world’s best teams will compete online for a total of two weeks. While the DreamLeague will be produced from EFG’s Stockholm Studios in Sweden, the participating teams will face off remotely from all around Europe.
Teams will qualify for a DreamLeague Season via the EPT Ranking System and will each season battle for a share of the $1,000,000 total prize pool. Furthermore, the best-performing teams will directly qualify for the Group Stage of the EPT Championship event – Riyadh Masters.
The first season of the ESL Pro Tour for Dota 2 includes two DreamLeague Seasons:
- Season 19: April 9-23, 2023
- The winning team will qualify directly for the Group Stage of Riyadh Masters.
- Season 20: June 7-25, 2023
- The winner and runner-up will both qualify directly for the Riyadh Masters Group Stage.
*Regional Assigned Slots may change between DreamLeague Season 19 and Season 20.
The epic conclusion to the first EPT season will take place at Riyadh Masters in Riyadh, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, on July 17-30, 2023. At the live EPT Championship event, 20 of the best teams will compete for a share of the $15,000,000 total prize pool and the title of EPT Champions. The three directly qualified teams from DreamLeague Season 19 and 20 will be joined in Riyadh by 17 more teams, five of which will be determined via the highest average placings across both DreamLeague seasons. Riyadh Masters takes place at the Gamers8 festival. Please check out the official Gamers8 website for more information.

Elantil strengthens marketplace portfolio with RubyPlay partnership

Elantil, the pioneering platform solutions provider that’s steadily redefining relationships between operators and suppliers, has announced it has formed a new partnership with RubyPlay that will further extend the range of casino titles available in its online marketplace.
Celebrated for its game’s immersive themes and innovative bonus features, RubyPlay has been recognised across the industry with several notable awards, including FTN Game of the Year for its Mad Hit® Olympic First slot and Favourite Casino Company at the 2023 B.F.T.H Arena Awards.
Fully licensed and regulated in a number of key iGaming jurisdictions across the globe, RubyPlay has consistently raised the bar in terms of what’s possible from an online video slot by introducing a number of ground-breaking game mechanics such as the ever-popular Immortal Ways®, Giga Match® and Go High®.
With this in mind, the provider is certain to be a hugely popular addition to Elantil’s Marketplace and will now be available to all operators via a simple one-click integration, with Elantil giving operators the freedom to contact RubyPlay directly and form the terms of their own agreements.
As this effectively cuts out the middleman and ensures that no extra costs are ever charged on Elantil’s side, operators are given complete control over the length and conditions of their contract and need only enter their login details in the marketplace to enjoy a speedy, hassle-free set-up.
The new partnership will therefore enable Elanti’s operators to quickly integrate and roll out over 100 thrilling casino titles on their platforms, with this further increasing the choice available via Elantil’s Marketplace while also ensuring that RubyPlay’s content reaches more players worldwide.
John Debono, Chief Technical Officer at Elantil, said: “Since launching Elantil’s Marketplace, we’ve steadily set about building a first-class collection of casino content that’s easily accessible to operators via a simple one-click integration – and the addition of RubyPlay games will certainly strengthen our offering further. Known for their engaging titles and innovative bonus mechanics, we’re sure RubyPlay will prove to be a popular software partner for Elantil’s operators going forward.”
Dr. Eyal Loz, Chief Product Officer at RubyPlay, said: “Much like Elantil, RubyPlay is a company that’s always strived to disrupt the industry through its creative ideas and cutting-edge innovation, so we couldn’t think of a better partner to be teaming up with. Being integrated into Elantil’s Marketplace will ensure that our content is put in front of an even wider audience and we’re really looking forward to supporting their operators.”
