Valve has traditionally allocated a starting amount of $1,600,000 to the prize pool, and the rest of the prize money is 25% of Battle Pass sales. At the moment, the total prize pool is $15,558,395. For comparison, the prize fund of last year's The International was $40,018,195. The International 2022 is not even close to The International 2015, which had a prize pool of $18,429,613. This is due to the weak content of the Battle Pass, as well as its division into two parts.
