PUBG Nations Cup 2025 will be going from July 23 to July 27, and it is happening at the Olympic Handball Gymnasium in Seoul, South Korea. This place is known for its crowd and vibe, so definitely going to be loud. The 5-days event will be totally offline and fans are expected to cheer loud.
Countries & Players Participating at PUBG Nations Cup 2025
This time, it’s 24 teams total, the biggest yet in PUBG Nations Cup. 8 countries already have direct slots, based on last year’s results. That includes South Korea (who won last time), Argentina, USA, Thailand, China, and few more like Australia and Brazil.
Other 16 teams such as India, UK, Germany, Japan, France, Indonesia, and more will join the Survival Stage first and try to qualify to finals.
Each country has four players. Some countries select them through voting, others do tryouts and stuff. Depends from nation to nation.
Match Format Details
Survival Stage (First Two Days – July 23–24)
The 16 non-qualified teams will be playing 12 matches across 2 days. The maps include Erangel, Miramar, Taego, Rondo, etc. 6 matches per day basically.
Top 8 teams will move forward. The rest get out.
Final Stage (Last 3 Days – July 25–27)
Now 16 teams (8 invited + 8 survivors) will play total 18 games, again 6 each day. Point system is PUBG’s S.U.P.E.R system (2025 rules), which gives points for kills and placement.
If there’s tie in points, then they look at placement points, chicken dinners, damage and even last match. It’s kinda complicated but makes sense for balance.
What’s the Prize Pool of PUBG Nations Cup 2025 ?
The prize pool start from $500,000, which gonna be increased with Pick’em Challenge event where fans buy stuff to support teams. The more people buys, the more prize pool increases.
- The winning team gets $150,000
- Second: $60,000
- Third: $36,000

So all teams are getting something.

All matches will be streamed live in English and other languages on PUBG’s Twitch and YouTube. Talents and casters will be shared later.
