Despite recently being hit by the lack of a main sponsor, ESWC will soldier on in 2009 and today released the first tidbits for the new season.
Details of the grand final are scarce, other than the fact that they will take place in June. But Game Service announced the first batch of national qualifiers in an email. Though the list is currently incomplete, it can be seen below.

However, ESWC fans from other countries shouldn't fear. There are a number of countries still under discussion, including traditionally strong countries and previous champions such as Sweden and the USA.
