Lots of races (sadly Beast of Big Creek is still missing) and a pretty cool webpage to display them all.

German website XC-Run.de has the rundown of the changes in rules and regulations as well as prize money (yes, another translated website today, and the third non-english language to boot):

Based on feedback rounds with athletes, the competition recently presented its global 24-race calendar for next season and made various adjustments to the rules and regulations for the coming season. These changes reflect the competition’s continued commitment to the safety of athletes, fair competition and the steady growth of skyrunning as a global sport.

Prize money increased from €227,000 in 2024 to €250,000 in 2025. I don’t have the exact comparison to last year on how this breaks down, sadly.
