What’s the format?

The PEC: Spring Finals format is tried and tested - 16 teams will face off over three days, for a total of 15 matches. Whoever has the most points at the end of play on Sunday will be crowned the Finals 1 Champion! 

What’s at stake?

The PEC: Spring Finals are vitally important to any team who wants to compete on the global stage. To start with, the top 2 teams qualify directly to all PUBG Global Series events in the second half of the year (meaning PGS Circuit 2 and 3). 

Furthermore, PEC Finals will be the main events at which teams earn PGC Points, which are used to qualify for the crown jewel of the PUBG Esports year - the PUBG Global Championship. Teams have already had an opportunity to pick up some PGC Points during the Playoffs, but the amount up for grabs is much bigger in the Finals.

And last but certainly not least - there is $29,500 of prize money up for grabs in each Finals weekend!

Wait… there’s two sets of Finals?

This edition of PEC is unique because there are two sets of Playoffs and Finals. So, once this weekend’s Finals are over, we’ll be going back to the Playoffs stage next weekend with Playoffs 2 - where all 29 teams will start from scratch and try to qualify for Finals 2.
