The new Season will arrive in January, 2019 and it will be subdivided into three phrases, with all competitions across different regions coinciding and complete within a specific time frame.

The first two Phases will go from January through June when the top two teams from each region will face off in a series of tournaments hosted by affiliated organizers around the world. Shortly after the global events, the All-Star Games will arrive.

Phase 3 will continue as usual with teams trying to progress in the rank list and reach the Global Championships, which will reunite the top performers from across the world to compete for a bite of the $2 million prize money. PUBG’s mobile segment has also been doing rather well with the upcoming Star Challenge sporting solid $600,000 in prize money.

PUBG Corp. expressed their enthusiasm about continuing to invest into the game as an esports and reach out to newer audiences. PUBG Corp. Chief Marketing Officer Richard Kwon shared his content with PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds reaffirming its stance of a competitive video gaming product.
