The DreamHack Bucharest organisers have announced that this year's event will feature a $15,000 prize pool.

Earlier in the month, HLTV.org exclusively revealed that PGL, the Romanian DreamHack partner, had agreed to stage a CS:GO tournament featuring 16 teams at the 2013 edition of the event.

It has now been confirmed that the tournament, which will be held on September 14th-15th at the Polyvalent Hall, will feature a prize purse amounting to $15,000 (approximately €11,460).

The prize breakdown has not yet been determined, but the tournament is expected to draw the attention of most of Europe's big-name teams.

A total of 16 teams will be in attendance, four of whom will hail from Romania, while the remaining 12 will be invited by the organisation.
