NAVI Confirms Esports World Cup 2025 Appearance and Teases s1mple’s Return

Natus Vincere has officially confirmed its participation in the Esports World Cup 2025, with teams set to compete in CS2, Apex Legends, PUBG, and more.

The announcement was accompanied by a humorous promo video shared on NAVI’s YouTube channel. In the clip, CEO Yevhen “HarisPilton” Zolotarov has a nightmare where players switch games or withdraw from the tournament entirely. Notably, the CS2 squad, including Oleksandr “s1mple” Kostyliev, is seen playing Dota 2, with Kyrylo “ANGE1” Karasov from the Valorant team joining them.

Upon waking, Zolotarov receives a phone call from s1mple — a clear tease that the legendary AWPer may be returning to action.

Recently, s1mple revealed he had received several offers from other organizations and noted that his buyout value has been decreasing due to his extended absence from the pro scene. According to unconfirmed reports, his contract with NAVI may expire in 2025.
