The PGI.S Survival Tournament offered a unique midpoint to PGI.S by presenting a completely new viewing experience and casual $60,000 prize pool for all 32 PUBG Esports teams to claim. With modified Blue Zone and rapid shift circles, the Survival Tournament kept teams rotating through approximately 13 minute matches.
All teams were separated into 8 groups before Survival Tournament weekend and would compete in a series of 3 matches. The winners of each group would progress to the quarter-finals. Thereafter, 4 teams would run the gambit again to find their seat in the Top 4 for the Survival Tournament final on Day 3.
