About
Every match of PUBG: BATTLEGROUNDS begins with teams dropping from an aerial craft onto an island filled with loot. Players scavenge for guns, armor, and grenades before hunting opponents, with strategic rotations, efficient looting, and precise gunplay separating the top teams from the rest.
As one of the most influential battle royale games, PUBG: BATTLEGROUNDS helped define the genre with sky drops, loot mechanics, and shrinking play zones. On the EWC stage, seasoned pros face off for the chicken dinner and a share of the prize pool, delivering intense team fights and strategies.
