PUBG Esports Reveals 2025 PGS & PGC Point Distribution Systems

PUBG Esports released a new point distribution system set to organize the race to the PUBG Global Championship (PGC) starting from the PUBG Global Series (PGS) describing all the ways of point earning.

The 2025 PUBG Global Series will still feature a series of four rounds, each with its own point distribution. Teams’ performances throughout the season will accumulate points, and the top 8 highest-scoring teams from the PGS rankings will earn direct invitations to the PUBG Global Championship. In total, 24 teams will compete in the PGS, including 14 from regional competitions and 10 PUBG Global Partner Teams.

Meanwhile, the PGC itself has expanded for 2025 in comparison with previous years up to 33 teams total. This expansion means more chances for teams to qualify through the regional series, PGS, and the addition of a Wild Card slot that grants a direct invitation to the PGC 2025 grand finals. 

It is worth noting that if a team earns a PGC seed from the PGS points and also qualifies through their regional series, the next highest-ranking team from that region will be given the opportunity for a PGC seed.

Different regions have their own point systems, all designed to reflect the intensity and competition of their respective scenes. In Korea, for example, the PUBG Weekly Series (PWS) rewards teams with a series of points based on their weekly performance, with the final round offering the most significant rewards. The PWS: Phase 2 in Korea, for instance, distributes points across 4 weeks, with the top team earning up to 120 points in the finals.

The PUBG Champions League in China offers some of the highest point values across the board. For instance, the PCL Spring series rewards the top team with 200 points, while the autumn edition boosts this to 300 points, making it an essential competition for teams in the region.

Meanwhile, in EMEA (Europe, the Middle East, and Africa), the PUBG EMEA Championship points system provides rankings for both the spring and fall editions. The highest-scoring team in the spring tournament takes home 200 points, while the fall edition bumps it up to 250 points, reinforcing the importance of every region’s championship event.

In the Americas and APAC regions, the point distributions are similarly structured, with various local and regional competitions contributing to the global standings.
