The 2026 PUBG Esports season is here. For the first time, PUBG Global Series (PGS) introduces a Circuit format — three series linked together as one circuit, where three consecutive weeks of competition tell a single, connected story.

The first circuit, PGS 1–3, takes place in Seongsu, Seoul, South Korea and will be held without a live audience, bringing together 24 teams from around the world for three weeks of intense competition.

Here's everything you need to know about the very first PUBG Global Series Circuit.

What's New in 2026?

Previously, PGS events operated as individual, standalone tournaments. Starting in 2026, three series are connected as a single circuit — a three-week competition structure where results accumulate and carry forward.

• Series 1 (Week 1): All 24 teams start from zero, competing through multiple stages to establish the opening standings.
• Series 2 (Week 2): Teams are seeded based on Series 1 results, with another opportunity to climb — or fall — in the rankings.
• Series Final (Week 3): The peak of the circuit. Two weeks of accumulated results become decisive as 16 teams battle for the Circuit Championship in the Grand Finals.

The 2026 season consists of 4 Circuits (12 series total), and this circuit is where it all begins.

Circuit 1 Schedule

• PGS 1 (Series 1): March 18 – March 22, 2026 (5 days / Wed – Sun)
• PGS 2 (Series 2): March 26 – March 29, 2026 (4 days / Thu – Sun)
• PGS 3 (Series Final): April 2 – April 5, 2026 (4 days / Thu – Sun)

All matches start at 19:00 KST (10:00 UTC / 11:00 CET / 17:00 ICT / 03:00 PDT).
