The Ultimate National Showdown Returns: PNC 2025 is Here With New Pick'em Challenge
The most anticipated international event of the summer, the PUBG Nations Cup 2025, is set to begin, and KRAFTON is bringing back the fan-favorite Pick'em Challenge with some exciting new twists. Fans will have the opportunity to support their favorite national teams and earn exclusive rewards by predicting the tournament's outcome.
How the Pick'em Challenge Works
The core of the event remains the same: players can purchase exclusive PNC 2025 in-game items to receive voting coupons. These coupons can then be used to predict the tournament's final standings.
- Pick the Winner: In an expanded version of the classic format, players can now predict the top NINE teams of the tournament. Correctly predicting the final placement of a team will award a significant amount of Esports Points (EP), with the grand prize of 700,000 EP for guessing the overall champion.
- Team Faceoff: A secondary prediction game where players vote on the winner of specific head-to-head matchups between rival nations.
- Esports Point Shop: The EP earned from correct predictions can be exchanged in the Esports Point Shop for exclusive PNC 2025 cosmetic items, including, for the first time, 24 unique national team-themed helmet skins.
Key Dates for Fans
- Item Sales Period: July 16 - August 6 (PC)
- Voting Period: July 16 - July 25 (Ends just before the Finals begin)
- Reward Claiming Period: July 28 - August 6
As always, 25% of the net sales from the PNC 2025 items will be contributed directly to the prize pool, supporting all the teams participating in the event.
In-Game Drops and Events
Beyond the Pick'em Challenge, fans can earn rewards just by watching the tournament. Official broadcasts on Twitch and other regional platforms will have drops enabled, offering exclusive PNC 2025 sprays, emblems, and emotes.
The PNC is more than just a tournament; it's a celebration of the global PUBG community. With new ways to participate and earn rewards, PNC 2025 is shaping up to be the most engaging Nations Cup yet. Be sure to cast your votes, tune into the live broadcast, and cheer for your nation!
