Registrations have already begun in 11 countries that include Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Philippines, Indonesia, India, China, Japan, Korea, Australia, and New Zealand. Registrations will be conducted into two categories - amateur, and influencer.
Around 80 amateur teams from each country will participate in the qualifier rounds that are slated to begin on 14 September 2018. Each country will have two influencers who will be invited to form squads. These squads will then participate in the Finale. The Grand Finale will see 40 teams battling it out for the championship trophy.
As part of the tournament rule, matches will be held only in squads. Each squad will have four players in the First Person Perspective (FPP) mode. Featuring both Erangel as well as the Miramar Map, the squad will have a single stand-in player and at least three players in the squad should be from the same team.
The teams will earn their points based on their final ranks after the battle royale. Additional points will be awarded for the total number of kills. Professional players will not be allowed to participate in the tournament.
