AMSTERDAM, NETHERLANDS – OCTOBER 19, 2023 – The Grand Finals for the PUBG EMEA Championship: Fall (PEC: Fall) – an online PUBG: BATTLEGROUNDS tournament hosted by KRAFTON, Inc. – will run for three days from 20 – 22 October where 16 of the region’s best rosters will compete for a share of the $100,000 prize pool. The tournament is the last chance for the squads to earn PUBG Global Championship (PGC) Points, and secure a place at the most prestigious PUBG Esports tournament, PGC 2023 in November this year.

EMEA will be sending seven teams to PGC 2023, which will be held in Bangkok, Thailand.

Among them are FaZe Clan, who dominated the Upper Bracket together with FUT Esports, both squads boasting three Chicken Dinners.
