After the success of last season, Multiplay have announced the UK Masters Season 2. Following a similar format to Season 1, there will be three open qualifiers for teams to qualify for the round robin group stage. As finalists in Season 1, FM eSports and CAZ eSports have been invited straight into the round robin knockout stage so they are not required to re-qualify.

The finals of Season 1 saw CAZ eSports claim first place after an impressive run throughout the whole season. The live finals at i58 had a full audience and over 250,000 people tune in on Twitch to watch the games unfold. With numbers like that, it’s no surprise that Multiplay are running a second season.

Season 2 is set to follow the same format throughout, three open qualifiers where top 2 teams proceed to the round robin stage. At the end of that, the top 2 teams will be invited to i59 for the live finals.

This season will also see an increase of the prize pool. Season 1 had a total of £12,600, but Season 2 has blown that figure out the water with the bank balance sitting at £20,000.
