PUBG PGC 2026 Event Pass goes on sale on 25 November at 02:00 UTC for PC, PlayStation and Xbox. The sale ends on 16 December at 00:00 UTC. It is a celebration of the PUBG Global Championship, but it is not available to purchase yet.
The November Store Update confirms those dates and PGC-themed rewards. It does not give the price or a level-by-level reward list. If you are deciding whether to save your G-Coin, those details still need to come from the live pass.
PUBG PGC 2026 Event Pass start and end dates
| Platform | Starts | Ends |
|---|---|---|
| PC | 25 November 2026, 02:00 UTC | 16 December 2026, 00:00 UTC |
| PlayStation and Xbox | 25 November 2026, 02:00 UTC | 16 December 2026, 00:00 UTC |
The PUBG PGC 2026 Event Pass has the same schedule on PC and console. That’s unlike the IVE collaboration, which started eight days later on console. KRAFTON notes that sale dates can change, so check the store again on launch day.
What is included in the PGC 2026 pass?
KRAFTON has only said that the pass contains PGC 2026-themed items. There is no confirmed public list of every cosmetic, level requirement or paid upgrade in the November announcement. Those details should be checked in-game from 25 November.
The name refers to the PUBG Global Championship 2026, the game’s flagship competitive event. In its 12 November tournament announcement, KRAFTON also confirmed that 25% of PGC 2026 Event Pass sales revenue will contribute to crowdfunding for participating clubs, with that fund distributed among the top eight teams at the Grand Finals. That percentage is revenue going into the event’s crowdfunding pool, not a discount for pass buyers. The pass is a separate store item rather than the regular Ranked season reward track. It also is not one of the free rewards listed in November Special Drops. A player interested in both should keep those event menus separate.
If the PGC items interest you, check the Store on 25 November before spending G-Coin elsewhere. The announcement doesn’t give enough information to compare the pass with other purchases yet.
How to find the PUBG PGC 2026 Event Pass
When the official start time arrives, open PUBG on your platform and check the in-game Store and Event Pass area for the PGC 2026 listing. Inspect the reward track, any free and paid reward distinctions, the listed purchase options and the time remaining. PUBG’s own store interface will give you the up-to-date information that is missing from the pre-launch notice.
The pass may not appear in the store before its scheduled launch. If the game is under maintenance at that time, check after service returns.
What time does the pass start in the UK, Europe and US?
The PUBG PGC 2026 Event Pass launch time of 02:00 UTC on 25 November is 02:00 GMT in the UK. It is 03:00 CET in central Europe, 21:00 EST on 24 November in New York, 18:00 PST on 24 November in Los Angeles and 13:00 AEDT on 25 November in Sydney. North American players will see the date change locally the evening before the official UTC date.
The 16 December end time of 00:00 UTC is midnight GMT in the UK, 01:00 CET, 19:00 EST on 15 December in New York, 16:00 PST on 15 December in Los Angeles and 11:00 AEDT in Sydney. Make sure you finish any planned purchases or reward claims before the countdown reaches zero.
Is the PUBG PGC 2026 Event Pass free?
The November Store Update calls this a pass on sale but does not say which rewards, if any, are on a free track. Its G-Coin price has not been confirmed in that announcement either. Look at the actual purchase options when the event begins.
Don’t mix the pass up with IVE Cargo rewards. That collaboration has its own Supply Bay draws and token expiry dates, and its tickets are not Event Pass currency.
What is worth checking on November 25?
On launch day, start by noting the pass price and whether there is a separate upgrade option. Then check the complete PGC-themed reward list, which items are tied to higher levels and whether there are any claim deadlines apart from the listed sale end. Those are the details that will determine the practical value of the PUBG PGC 2026 Event Pass to different players.
The PUBG PGC 2026 Event Pass is due to run from 25 November to 16 December on all platforms. Check the live Store when it arrives for the exact rewards, purchase options and claim requirements.
