Copenhagen Games' male CS:GO tournament will have €50,000 on offer (approximately $54,000), the event's organisers have revealed.

The news means that there is a €20,000 ($21,600) increase in prize money when compared to last year's tournament, which was won by HellRaisers after beating E-frag in the grand final.

The 2017 edition of Copenhagen Games, one of the oldest LAN events in the Nordic region, will run from April 13-15, with 16 teams taking part in the male CS:GO tournament, which will be sponsored by Plantronics and Waoo.

CPH Games will have over $50,000 on offer for male teams 

Eight of those spots will be filled through invites with the remaining places being decided by a qualifier taking place on site.

BIG, Tricked, Fnatic Academy and iGame.com are some of the teams already confirmed for the event, but it is still unknown which of them, if any, will get to skip the qualifier.

In addition to the main tournament, Copenhagen Games will feature a female CS:GO competition with over $15,000 up for grabs and the likes of Secret, dignitas and LGB in attendance.
