Tournament operator ESL, responsible for hosting the upcoming IEM Rio Major 2022, has revealed the first details of the qualifying process for the first-ever Major in Brazil. Open qualifiers for RMR tournaments will begin in August and will be held in seven regions (Europe, North and South America, China, Oceania, Middle East and Asia).

IEM Road to Rio, which has become an analogue of RMR tournaments, will be held from October 3 to 9 and will cover three unified regions: Europe, America and Asia. In order to qualify for the IEM Road to Rio, teams will need to complete their respective regional qualifiers starting in August. Divided into 7 regions and a total of 22 open and closed qualifiers, teams will compete for the right to qualify for IEM Rio Major 2022.
