BLAST will work with KRAFTON to bring the best of its industry-leading technology, high-end ‘fan-first’ production values and extensive esports tournament organiser experience to help elevate the PUBG esports scene.

A $50,000 prize pool is up for grabs in each of the EMEA and Americas regions, as the best teams battle for dominance and a chance to represent their regions on the global stage. The Open Qualifiers kick off on March 3rd. The tournaments will feature an officially broadcasted Group Stage from March 14-16, followed by the Last Chance phase on March 22-23, culminating in the Grand Finals from March 28-30.

Additionally, KRAFTON will be introducing the PUBG Players Tour (PPT), operated by BLAST in the EMEA and Americas regions. This brand-new grassroots event will act as the first officially supported third-person perspective (TPP) esports event since PGI 2018. This expansion underscores KRAFTON and BLAST’s commitment to providing diverse and engaging competitive experiences for the PUBG community.
