ESL announced the Swedish qualification for ESL Challenger at DreamHack Summer 2024. This marks the first such occasion since 2019 when the last Swedish qualifier for Dreamhack Open Winter was held.

Over the past few years, Swedish teams have been fighting for a spot on the international stage through European qualifiers, but 2024 will bring new opportunities. ESL Challenger Jönköping, scheduled for June 14-16, 2024, during Dreamhack Summer, will include not only European, North American, South American, and Asian qualifiers but also a special Swedish qualifier.
