The Chinese team Xtreme Gaming was not very active on the professional scene last year, and neither were their results. Fifth place at the DPC CN 2023 Tour 1: Division I provided the players with $25,000. Then the team was able to win the DPC CN 2023 Tour 2: Division I, which brought Xtreme Gaming the top prize of $30,000 and a ticket to ESL One Berlin Major 2023, where the team finished in the top-12 and was left without prize money. The DPC season for XG ended with a fifth place at DPC CN 2023 Tour 3: Division I and another $25,000. The team also played in the Riyadh Masters 2023, where they failed to qualify for the group stage and finished in 15th-16th place in the standings.
The previous professional tournament in which Xtreme Gaming players participated was The International 2023 - China Qualifier. XG started the qualifying tournament with a victory over Aster.Aries on two maps in a row. In the semifinals of the top grid, the team won a full bo3 series and made it to the winner's bracket finals. A 1-2 loss to Azure Ray sent Xtreme Gaming to the losers' bracket, where they were able to outscore Team Zero 2-1 to advance to the grand final of qualification.
