Hello, PUBG Esports fans!

As we enter the second half of the year, we would like to provide you with an update on the roadmap for 2023.


Calendar Update: What's coming up next?

The second lineup of PUBG Regional Series events will now become regional qualifiers for PGS 2. We're excited for regions to share more information about their plans for these qualifiers shortly, and we can't wait to see top squads from around the world embark on the Road to Riyadh!

We are also looking forward to celebrating global rivalries on the Battlegrounds even sooner than previously announced. The PUBG Nations Cup 2023 will be shifting forward one month from October to September - be sure to mark your calendars.

The final Regional Series will take place around October, where teams will compete for their last chance to earn PGC points and secure their participation in the year-end event, the PUBG Global Championship 2023.
