In the entire history of the Intel Extreme Masters in CS, this will be the third tournament ever held in Rio de Janeiro. The debut tournament for Rio de Janeiro was the Intel Extreme Master Rio Major 2022, which was won by Outsiders. At that time, holding the tournament in Brazil caused a mixed reaction from the community, as Brazilian fans were too emotional and aggressive, but ESL did not refuse to hold tournaments here in the future.
