PUBG Esports 2027 schedule begins with Regional Leagues in late March 2027 and concludes with the PUBG Global Championship in late November to early December. KRAFTON is introducing four competitive phases, with the PUBG Nations Cup taking place between the first and second halves of the year.
Each phase puts a Regional League before its own PUBG Global Series (PGS) event. Teams must earn a place in every phase rather than keeping a permanent PGS entry for the entire season. The dates announced on 29 October are planning windows, so the calendar below shows months and approximate periods, not invented match times.
PUBG Esports 2027 schedule: four phases and the finals
| Competition | Announced window |
|---|---|
| Phase 1 Regional League and PGS | Late March to early May |
| Phase 2 Regional League and PGS | Mid-May to mid-June |
| 2027 PUBG Nations Cup | Early July |
| Phase 3 Regional League and PGS | Early August to mid-September |
| Phase 4 Regional League and PGS | Late September to early November |
| 2027 PUBG Global Championship | Late November to early December |
The first two phases take place before summer, with Nations Cup in July. Regional League and PGS play resumes in August, and Phase 4 carries the competition into early November.
The table uses KRAFTON’s announced windows. Individual match days and broadcast times will be supplied with the Regional League and tournament schedules.
How each Regional League leads to PGS
Each phase follows a straightforward route: a Regional League decides which teams advance to that phase’s PGS. Making it to the first global event does not automatically qualify a team for the next one.
Global Partner Teams also lose guaranteed PGS entry in 2027. Our PUBG qualification guide explains the regional changes and why the previous PGS winner earns an extra seed for its region, rather than an automatic invitation.
PUBG Esports 2027 schedule: Nations Cup in July
PUBG Nations Cup is scheduled for early July 2027. It sits after Phase 2, which is expected to finish around mid-June, and ahead of Phase 3, planned for early August. Nations Cup is a separate event, not another round of the phase-specific Regional League-to-PGS qualification route.
Nations Cup isn’t a fifth Regional League and PGS phase. The PUBG Esports 2027 schedule places it in July, between the second and third phases of global competition.
When is PGC 2027?
The 2027 PUBG Global Championship, or PGC, is planned for late November to early December. Phase 4 ends around early November, leaving the final stretch of the season for the championship. PGC is the year-end global title event, separate from the four PGS phases.
A team’s PGC prospects are tied to a new cumulative system called PUBG Esports Points. Those points are earned from PGS performance, rather than simply taking part in Regional Leagues. Our PUBG Esports Points guide explains the difference from the older system.
PUBG Esports 2027 schedule: PGS places versus points
PGS places reset every phase, but points do not. Teams must earn their next appearance through another Regional League, while their PGS-earned Esports Points add to their totals for the year-end championship.
The previous PGS champion earns its region one more place at the following PGS. Teams still compete through the next Regional League to secure that additional place.
Where can fans follow the 2027 season?
The PUBG Esports 2027 schedule sets out the route from spring to the world championship. Regional results establish who reaches each global event; PGS results then build towards PGC qualification.
Regional competition is changing too. EMEA splits into Europe, Eurasia and MENA, the Americas into North and South America, and India becomes a new region. Our partner-team guide explains why even established organisations must qualify.
