The prize pool of The International is soaring new heights this year as well as it has reached beyond the $39 Million mark. The 2020 prize pool is already setting exorbitant amounts for itself to accomplish next year and with another 10 days left till the Battle Pass expiration, the prize pool can reach even higher levels and we can witness a milestone of $40,000,000. As Valve had mentioned earlier, an added incentive of reaching this landmark will be 10 extra levels for every Battle pass owner.
