PGC 2021 Tournament Structure


The PUBG Global Championship (PGC 2021) will begin its journey with a Rank decision match on Nov 19th and ending with a Grand Final ending on Dec 19th. Just like PGI.S earlier this year, PGC 2021 will be a LAN/Online hybrid tournament. The 32 qualified teams from around the globe will be invited to Paradise City in Incheon, Korea to compete for a prize pool of over 2 Million USD. Teams will also benefit from the sales of PGC store items, with 30% of the profit being added into the event prize pool. 

Now, let's get into the details of the tournament structure.

Tournament Structure
Rank Decision


PGC 2021 starts with Rank Decision matches on Nov 19th as teams fight for entry positions 1st through 32nd for the upcoming Weekly Survival.

Prior to the Rank Decision matches, teams will be divided into four groups. Group selection will take place once teams invited to Korea have completed their quarantine. The results will be announced via the PUBG Esports website approximately a week before the Rank Decision.

After the group selection, teams will go through a full league to compete with other groups for 3 days, 6 matches per day. Based on the outcomes of the Rank Decision, teams will be lined up from 1st to 32nd to prepare for the Weekly Survival series.

Weekly Series: Weekly Survival & Weekly Final & BOTTOM 16

Weekly Survival
Now things get serious.

Weekly Survival matches are 16 matches played over 3 days. The objective here will be to battle against 16 teams and become the last team standing. Each match, the team which wins the Chicken Dinner will advance through to the Weekly Finals. The remaining 15 teams will be joined by the next team from the BOTTOM 16 list and another match begins until all 16 slots are all filled in the Weekly Finals.

*As an exception, Weekly Survival matches and the Grand Survival will feature WWCD format and not use SUPER Point Rule.

Weekly Final
The 16 winners of the Weekly Survival matches will compete in a 10 match tournament over the weekend. 

Here, the tournament will follow the traditional PUBG Esports tournament structure and SUPER Point Rule. Teams will be competing to earn points which will be crucial for advancing onto the Grand Finals.
  • The winner of each Weekly Final will be granted with GUARANTEED slot at Grand Final
  • The winner of each Weekly Final will be granted with a special Weekly Winner prize of $30,000.
BOTTOM 16
The remaining 16 teams which failed to advance onto the Weekly Finals will compete in the BOTTOM 16 matches which take place on the upcoming Monday, after the Weekly Final.
  • The BOTTOM 16 is composed of a total of 5 matches to determine the next lineup for next week's waiting list for Weekly Survival. 
The Grand Final & Grand Survival


Last but not least, the Grand Finals. Top 16 battle-hardened veterans will be pushed to their limits in the final battle for the PGC throne.

Winner of Weekly Finals
  • The winner of each Weekly Finals (3 teams) will earn a slot at Grand Final
Top 9 teams 
  • The top 9 teams with the highest overall points from the Weekly Finals will advance to the Grand Finals
    • If the same team manages to win more than a week, the next team in line will advance to the Grand Finals.
    • E.g. Team A wins W1 & W2 → Top 10 teams will advance to Grand Finals
The Grand Survival

A day before the Grand Finals, Grand Survival will be held with the remaining 19 teams, excluding the teams already qualified for the Grand Finals, to select the winners of the remaining seats.
  • Grand Survival consists of 4 matches
  • The winner of each match will secure their spot in the Grand Finals.
*As an exception, Weekly Survival matches and the Grand Survival will feature WWCD format and not use SUPER Point Rule.

The Grand Final
The 16 teams successfully advanced to the Grand Finals will be challenged to compete in the final battle to claim the throne. 
  • The Grand Final will take place over 3 days with 5 matches per day.
  • PGC 2021 final rankings will be decided based on the final placements from the Grand Final
  • Remaining teams that have failed to advance to the Grand Final will be ranked based on their accumulated points from Weekly Finals.
Prize Pool 


The total prize pool of the PGC 2021 starts with 2 Million USD which will be distributed by the participating teams final results of the tournament. Similar to previous events, 30% of all PGC 2021 item sales contribute towards the total prize pool via crowdfunding.

PUBG: BATTLEGROUNDS - Hawkinz


Hello, PUBG Esports fans.

The 2021 PUBG GLOBAL CHAMPIONSHIP draws near! Teams from around the world are already en route to Korea for the November 19th showdown, so it's time to disclose a bit more about the tournament and teams you can expect to see! 

Tournament Format
PGC 2021 will be a LAN/Online hybrid tournament similar to how PGI.S was run.
  • In PGC 2021, 5 teams from CHINA will participate on-line.
  • All other teams will be invited to participate in-person in Korea.
Ideally, we'd love all teams to be together for this tournament, but unfortunately some visa issues have prevented that this year. So this year, all Chinese teams will play together in their own arena, while the rest of the teams play together in Korea.

Both PGC arenas in Korea and China will be equipped with identical gaming setups to guarantee that teams have an equal environment to compete. In addition, both arenas will be supervised by PUBG Esports referees to ensure a fair and transparent tournament.

All teams who qualified for PGC 2021 and are traveling to Korea and will be safely quarantined, following national quarantine guidelines. They will remain in the isolation facility for the next two weeks until the tournament begins.


Update to the Participating Teams
  • Unfortunately, team Unicorn Phoenix Da Nang from APAC region will not be able to participate in PGC 2021 due to difficulties in acquiring a visa.
    • UNP's ticket to participate in PGC 2021 has been transferred to the Vietnam team next in line, GAMEHOME Ha Dong.
Team Name Updates
Some participating teams have had a name change.
  • ASIA
    • (previously) Veronica7 → (now) GNL_ESPORTS
  • EUROPE
    • (previously) Question Mark → (now) Team Unique
  • AMERICA

PUBG: BATTLEGROUNDS - Hawkinz


Hello, Survivors.

Updates for Live Server
  • Fixed the 'cancel' error message that pops up during matchmaking.
  • Fixed the issue of a player's weapon getting holstered after player gets off a vehicle after using healing/boosting item in the driver's seat.
  • Fixed the audio issue of an observer being able to hear gun shots from a player who isn't shooting.
  • Fixed the issue of the sentence on the bottom of the Ranked mode results screen being cut off after the game language is set to English.
  • Fixed the issue of the Night Hunter Mask's color looking different from the Store's banner image color.
  • The issue where the Self-AED disappears instantly when it is used immediately after coming out of the water in DBNO conditions when teammate(s) is alive.
  • The issue where if you use Self-AED on the ground after being downed while swimming, you get killed instantly when there are no teammates.

14.2 Highlights



New Weapon: M79 can be found, not only in Taego but across all eight maps.

The new Taego weapon Mortar is easy to use in combat situations, but it can take a lot of practice to achieve reasonable accuracy. First, you must calculate the distance to the target and the expected movement path, so calculate carefully. Once you get used to it, it can be helpful to attack behind ridges where grenades can’t reach or when defending specific areas. Also, it can be effective when destroying the trunk of a vehicle. In particular, you can use various strategies in cooperative play, so be sure to use them in battle!


  • Once looted, it takes up a primary slot.
  • Deployment
    • It can only be deployed on flat surfaces.
      • It cannot be deployed on cement, iron, concrete, water, or wooden floors, or inside buildings.
      • Left-click to deploy the Mortar.
      • Press the “F” key to cancel deployment.
    • Requires three seconds for deployment.
  • Firing
    • The character crouches automatically once the firing mode gets activated.
    • The character cannot move until the firing mode gets released.
    • Player must have ammo in the inventory to fire.
    • There is a one-second delay between fires.
  • Modes
    • Normal Match
    • Custom Match
    • Custom Match Sandbox Mode
    • Not included in Ranked Season 14
  • Spawn 
    • Mortar and ammo both spawn inside buildings.
      • Does not spawn in Supply Crates or Secret Rooms.
  • It can shoot between 121m to 700m in distance.

  • Our new M79 is a smoke grenade launcher that was created to provide quick smoke cover on longer ranges. Blind your enemies, cover your downed teammate or make a grand escape from a losing battle!
NEW FEATURE: DBNO SWIMMING 
To improve the survivability of players inside water, we are now supporting DBNO Swimming. Previously a player who enters DBNO while in the water would skip DBNO and instantly die. This made any deep water a hazardous area to traverse. Now a player will instead enter Swimming DBNO, a slow swimming state which gives the player a chance to reach the shore and be revived by teammates. Hopefully, you’ll feel more confident next time you get into a Boat or swim across that river!
  • DBNO Players can swim for at half of the normal speed.
  • The air a player has in their lungs is not reset when entering DBNO, so a player who was drowning will continue to drown in DBNO.
  • In DBNO a player is constantly losing HP. combined with drowning HP loss this means that a DBNO player will die within 10 seconds underwater.
  • Reviving underwater is impossible, and any ongoing revive is canceled when either player goes underwater or moves around too much.
  • It is possible to revive a swimming DBNO player while floating on the water.
WORLD
TAEGO’S NEW CREATURE: CHICKEN


  • We are proud to introduce the Chicken, a new creature that will hopefully amuse many players during fierce combats in Taego! “Chicken? Why the heck?” you might wonder. The answer to this question is left to your imaginations.
    • Three different conditions apply:
      • Calm
        • This is the default state and, at the same time, the most stable emotional state. Calm as a monk, and nothing special.
      • Fear
        • The Chickens fly, not, run for their lives in the following situations.
          • When hearing
            • Punching
            • Footsteps (except prone sound)
            • Gunshots
            • Engine and exhaust sounds
            • Other creatures die
      • Death
        • Sadly, there’s an end to everything. Taego’s amuser also passes away once hit. They take damages from guns and grenades, then turn into fried chicken upon death. Sorry, a bad joke, they go to where we all go.

  • We will add a button to the Profile Overview page to link your PUBG account and Krafton ID.
  • With the update, the PUBG account can be linked directly with Krafton ID from the lobby.
PROFILE OVERVIEW

Previously, the Career page was used as the profile screen. It was difficult for players to recognize their status at a glance, and it was also challenging to identify which player they were when viewing other players’ profiles. That’s why we want to provide you with a profile overview where you can see at a glance the current state of yourself and other players. Here, you can show off your fashion sense and skin!
  • You can check the summary of your current season stats in “Career” → “Overview”.
  • You can check the last played match mode, team mode, and season summary information at the time of the current season.
  • Current survival level, last killed weapon mastery information, and last obtained medal information is displayed.
  • The summary of the player’s season stats will be visible in other players’ profiles.
  • Previous records, adding friends, and inviting teams are possible in the same way as in the previous record profile.

PUBG: BATTLEGROUNDS - Hawkinz


Hello Survivors!

With only a few weeks before the ancient ghost-chasing Celtic festival of Samhain - yes, Halloween - we want to drop a little surprise into your candy pockets. First of all... do you remember Fantasy Battle Royale? Fantasy Battle Royale was first released as an experimental "prank" mode for April Fools' Day, but the popularity of the mode was so explosive that the service was extended for another week!

So for this Halloween, we've decided to resurrect last year's Fantasy Battle Royale from its legendary ruins and polish it into a spookier version and name: PUBG LABS is back with Halloween Battle Royale!

Are you ready to charge into the spine-chilling Battlegrounds?

What is Halloween Battle Royale?


Players will be asked to transform into their preferable class, aboard the Ghost Ship (yup, not a plane!), jump down into Erangel's darkness, and fight to be the last one standing. Pretty easy, huh? It's the same old battle royale but you're all simply placed in a fantastical setting. Let's now take a look at Halloween Battle Royale's basic rules and features.
  • Players can enter Halloween Battle Royale mode by pressing the LABS banner in the main lobby.
  • Once matchmaking is done, a window will pop up where players can choose to be either an Executioner, Ranger, Pyromancer, or Cleric.
    • Players will have time to choose their class in the pre-game lobby; they can also bring the class window back up by pressing F8 for PC or X for Console.
  • The first circle will be shown on the map once players hop on the Ghost Ship.
    • At the same time, players will be equipped with their respective class's Level 1 weapon, ring, and necklace.
  • Players will have to loot ingredients to upgrade their weapons.
  • Fight foes with your class skills, show great teamwork with your squad, and win Halloween Battle Royale.
Halloween Battle Royale Classes
Now's the time to introduce the four different classes: Executioner, Ranger, Pyromancer, or Cleric. Since there are no limits to the number of a certain class in a single squad, teammates should get tactical and put their heads together to think about what combination they could come up with.

However, keep in mind that each class requires its own exclusive ingredients to grow stronger! Therefore, it would be efficient to share loot among different classes, but it's obviously not the best to share the loot you would need if your squad is made up of four Executioners.

Another important note: once players upgrade their Level 1 weapons to Level 2, they can choose between two different types of weapons. Each weapon has different skills so make sure to craft and wield wisely! But do not fear; players can switch between the two weapons in every upgrade stage.

Executioner

"I'm here for the SLAUGHTERFEST!"

An Executioner is your classic melee warrior that can chase down or pull enemies in for brutal combat.
  • Default Weapon: Axe of Swiftness
    • Executioners can dash towards enemies.
  • Alternate Weapon (Craftable from Level 2): Halberd of Restraint
    • Executioners can pull in enemies within a certain area.
Executioners also generate class-exclusive items throughout the game.
  • Stun Ball: Stuns enemies for 2 seconds.
  • Liquid Courage: Enhances moving speed and boosts HP for a certain amount of time.
Ranger

"Always stay alert. I might come for you from atop the trees, the thickest undergrowth, or from right behind you."

A Ranger can either become a sniper who deals damage from afar or a stealthy assassin that dives in for a sneak attack.
  • Default Weapon: Fatal Crossbow
    • Powerful long-range weapon.
  • Alternate Weapon (Craftable from Level 2): Blade of Invisibility
    • Short-ranged melee weapon that allows Rangers to turn invisible for a certain amount of time.
    • Attacking enemies from behind or during an invisible state will apply more damage.
Rangers also generate class-exclusive items throughout the game.
  • Snare Trap: Rangers can set up traps and root enemies for 5 seconds.
  • Stun Grenade: The same old stun grenade.
Pyromancer

"Aah... the smell of burning flesh."

A Pyromancer specializes in assaulting multiple enemies at once with deadly fire.
  • Default Weapon: Gloves of Calamity
    • Allows Pyromancers to attack with Fireballs.
    • Deals great damage but is difficult to wield.
  • Alternate Weapon (Craftable from Level 2): Hellfire Cannon
    • Can fire infinitely.
    • May overheat and be unusable for a certain amount of time if continuously used.
Pyromancers also cast spells throughout the game.
  • Firewall: Generates large firewalls to block the enemy's path.
  • Meteor Shower: Generates powerful meteors. This can only be activated when the Pyromancer's necklace is Level 3 or above.
Cleric

"I'm not a nice doctor; BLEED to HEAL!"

A Cleric is an aggressive healer that can lock in melee combat.

  • Default Weapon: Mace of Suffering and Aegis of Light
    • The Mace of Suffering is a melee weapon that causes enemies to bleed for a certain amount of time.
    • Using the Mace of Suffering on teammates will restore their HP.
    • The Aegis of Light blocks crossbow attacks.
  • Alternate Weapon (Craftable from Level 2): Triage Shotgun
    • Shooting teammates will restore their HP.
    • Shooting enemies will debuff them and cause slight damage.
Clerics also generate class-exclusive items throughout the game.
  • Vitality Bomb: Restores HP.
  • First Aid Kit: Healing item that can be shared with teammates.
Items and Crafting

  • Halloween Battle Royale has its own set of items spawned throughout the map, so players won't be finding any weapons, ammo, throwables, boosts, or equipment.
    • However, bandages will spawn.
    • The items that players will find will mostly be ingredients to upgrade weapons, rings, and necklaces.
  • Each class-specific weapon, ring, and necklace given to the players at the beginning cannot be dropped or traded.

  • Players can open the crafting window by pressing Tab.
  • The looted ingredients are used to upgrade players' weapons, ring, and necklace.
  • Players can right-click to upgrade craftable items (which will glow up).
  • Since each class has two weapons, players will be shown two weapon-crafting routes.
    • Each class's Level 1 weapon is set as default but starting from Level 2, players can choose to craft to either of the two weapons (Ex. Players can craft a Executioner's Level 1 Axe to Level 2 Axe OR Level 2 Halberd).
Treasure Chests (Care Packages)

Treasure falling from the sky! The care packages will be looking like Treasure Chests in Halloween Battle Royale.
  • Treasure Chests contain general and Level 5 crafting ingredients.
  • Dropped Treasure Chests will be marked on the map.
  • Players will have to damage the Treasure Chest to open it.
  • The squad that successfully opens and interacts with the Treasure Chest is given an invincibility buff for 10 seconds.
Vehicles
  • Instead of normal vehicles and planes, Halloween Battle Royale will only have the "Night Slayer" UAZ and Ghost Ships.
  • Vehicles' speed and HP were nerfed in this mode to prompt more dynamic gameplay.
Service Schedule

PUBG LABS: Halloween Battle Royale will be open during the following period:

PC & Console
  • PDT: October 19, 10 PM - November 1, 12 AM
  • CEST/CET: October 20, 7 AM - November 1, 8 AM

  • TPP Only
  • 20 Squads of 4 (Max. 80 players per match)

Hello Survivors!

We hope you're all enjoying our BLACKPINK X PUBG: Battlegrounds collaboration - if you can recall our last month's BLACKPINK photo contest announcement, we promised our potential winners abundant rewards if the participants uploaded screenshots of themselves equipped with BLACKPINK items.

We expected this contest to be more competitive than our Esports matches since the winners would be receiving BLACKPINK merchandise! It was extremely difficult to pick out only 25 winners out of hundreds of talented participants, but since there are rewards waiting to be taken home, we will declare the lucky winners without further ado:
