According to unofficial information from various sources, the starting prize pool for The International 2023 will be $3 million instead of $1.6.

Insider Arseniy Kuzminsky on Twitter:

Casters spilt some tea that VALVE with expand the initial prize pool of TI2023 from $1.6m (usual amount for TIs) to $3m (almost doubled). 

And they will re-adjust crowdfunding in some way.

How high will the bar be this year? $15m?

Content maker Yaroslav "NS" Kuznetsov told similar information on his community stream:

I'm talking about a small insider. Although, maybe this is an open information. I do not know. Let's assume I just made it up. This TI will have a base prize pool of $3 million, which is more than any other.

Valve canceled The International Battle Pass in Dota 2. Previously, it was the main source of prize money at TI.


The International 12 will take place in Seattle on October 12 to 29. 20 best Dota 2 teams based on the results of Dota Pro Circuit 2023 will participate at the main Dota 2 tournament.
