Tournament operator ESL presented a list of invited teams to participate in the upcoming ESL Impact Katowice 2023. Among them were the following teams - Nigma Galaxy Female, Counter Logic Gaming Red, FURIA Esports Female and HSG. These teams will be waiting for their opponents, which will be determined by the results of open qualifiers in Europe (two slots), North and Latin America.

Earlier, ESL presented plans for the development of ESL Impact, the women's CS:GO competitive ecosystem, for 2023.

Perhaps the main favorite of the championship will again be the Nigma Galaxy Female team, which won all the major tournaments of the ESL Impact series last season. However, the Brazilian team FURIA Esports Female also showed promising results, having played in the finals three times.

Before that, the organizers will hold several online qualifiers, which will determine the final composition of the participants in ESL Impact Katowice 2023.
