A New Era Begins – PUBG Esports 2026
Hey PUBG Esports fans,
We’re entering a new chapter. And it starts with a bold step forward.
A New Beginning for PUBG Esports
Over the past seven years, PUBG Esports has grown through constant challenges.
Now, as we move into 2026, we’re taking the next leap:
PUBG Esports will officially transition to Third-Person Perspective (TPP).
This is not about replacing what came before — it’s about expanding what PUBG Esports can become.
Why TPP?
PUBG has always been about strategy, tension, and survival — no matter the perspective.
But for most of the 1 billion players who’ve experienced PUBG, that experience has been through TPP.
While FPP built the foundation of our professional scene, we also heard from fans and players that the gap between playing PUBG and watching PUBG Esports sometimes felt too wide.
The move to TPP is about bringing the two experiences closer together — aligning what players love to play with what they love to watch.
It’s about making the game more accessible, relatable, and immersive for more people around the world — without losing the depth and skill that define our competition.
Built Through Conversations & Community
This change didn’t happen overnight.
Over the past year, we’ve been in constant dialogue with teams and players, holding more than three official feedback sessions to share ideas, concerns, and direction.
We also tested and verified our vision through the PUBG Players Tour (PPT), which saw over 5,000 unique competitors each season. These events proved that a TPP-based competitive scene can be both thrilling and sustainable.
Your feedback — from pros to fans — has shaped every step of this transition.
And it will continue to shape how PUBG Esports grows from here.
The 2026 Season – Global Expansion, Bigger Stage
With TPP as the new foundation, PUBG Esports 2026 will feature a more dynamic, globally connected structure — bringing more teams, more matches, and more stories than ever before.
Key Highlights:
PUBG Global Series (PGS) – 12 tournaments throughout the year
PUBG Nations Cup (PNC) – returns in late June
PUBG Global Championship (PGC) – crowns the world’s best in December
Along with the expanded calendar, we’re increasing support funds and prize pools for both Global Partner Teams and qualified teams, reinforcing a more stable and sustainable esports ecosystem.
From regional leagues to global championships, every part of the season will now feel like one connected journey — a year-long story shared by players and fans alike.
Looking Ahead – A Future We Build Together
2026 marks the beginning of a new era for PUBG Esports.
The shift to TPP and the evolution of our competitive structure are not short-term changes — they’re the foundation for long-term growth and a thriving ecosystem.
We’ll continue to listen, learn, and evolve — guided by player feedback, data, and our shared love for this game.
Together with our fans, teams, and players, we’re writing the next chapter of PUBG Esports.
And we can’t wait for you to be part of it.
Thank you for your passion, your criticism, and your belief in what PUBG Esports can become.
A New Era Begins.
