The Teams and In-Game Items for Nations Cup Are Ready to Shine

The top professional battle royale players in the world will gather in Seoul, Korea beginning August 9 to represent their home countries at the first PUBG Nations Cup. Players from every competitive PUBG region have been selected by their peers to represent their respective nations in a battle for global bragging rights and the lion’s share of a 500,000 USD prize pool.

As part of the PUBG Esports celebrations, fans can pick up a limited edition PUBG Nations Cup Pan Skin for 9.99 USD beginning July 30 PDT after the live server maintenance ends. Swatting opponents with a commemorative skillet will have the same effect, but one should never overlook the opportunity to add style points. The limited-edition Pan with the debossed Nations Cup logo will only be available for purchase until August 13 PDT before the live server maintenance starts.

For the tournament itself, raw talent should carry the day as players look to quickly bond with their fellow all-star teammates in a tournament that should be as tense as any we’ve seen so far. When every player on every Nations Cup roster is likely one of the two best players on his professional team, there won’t be any weak links to exploit. For three days, from August 9-11 at JangChung Arena, fans will bear witness to the largest gathering of top-tier talent PUBG Esports has seen yet and the resulting celebration of PUBG should be epic.

For those in Seoul during the second week of August, tickets will be on sale at special early bird pricing on Interpark beginning July 17 at 4:00 p.m. KST until July 24 KST. Tickets will then be sold at regular pricing beginning July 24 through August 10 KST. Every ticket will come with a special in-game item coupon and a Nations Cup Welcome Kit (limited to one per person).
