NiP signs PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds Team

Ninjas in Pyjamas are landing on Erangel

Today one of the most popular european multigamings signed their roster.

As an organisation which is not afraid of new challenges and opportunities, we’re always searching far & wide for the next big game to possibly enter the esports arena one day. With the amount of hours our employees have been racking up in this game, the signing of a competitive team was pretty much inevitable. If it was a sound business move or pier pressure, we’re not entirely sure of. One thing is for certain though – we’re all pretty darn excited about it.

Today we’re glad to announce our venture in to PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds, the game many of us have that special love/hate relationship with ever since its explosive launch in late March this year. With such a rapid growth in playerbase and millions of gamers dropping onto the island of Erangel every single day, we’re happy to see that this game has struck the hearts of gaming enthusiasts all across the globe. Of course the Ninjas in Pyjamas want to be a part of that journey.

The roster consists of none other than Borg, Ekkz, Sweaterr and Crunch – all top players in the world of PUBG. Welcome to the NiP Family, guys and thank you to Cloud9 for the smooth transition of your players!

"The Dream big or go home quote comes to mind, it doesn’t get much bigger than NiP, and our dreams have become a reality. We’re honored to be under the same banner with so many legends, and look forward to a great future with our new home and family. Can’t wait to see what we can achieve together as Ninjas!"
