The Pick’em Challenge for the 2021 PUBG Global Championship is officially live. It’s going to run beginning today until December 19.
While the event is live, players can get voting coupons by watching the esports broadcast or buying exclusive event in-game items. The voting coupons can then be used to predict the winners of PGC 2021 matches. Those who successfully predict the winners get Esports Points (EP). These can then be exchanged for exclusive PUBG in-game items.
By the way, 30% of the Pick’em Challenge net sales are to be added to the $2 million prize pool of the PGC.
