PUBG MOBILE to Feature Alan Walker’s New Single “On My Way “and Host One of the World’s Biggest Mobile Gaming Tournament
To celebrate the game’s anniversary and the release of the song, PUBG MOBILE players can utilize an Alan Walker-themed outfit that resembles his iconic mask and hoodie. Moreover, players can hear On My Way when they are in the PUBG MOBILE lobby or while driving a car in-game. During the launch event, Alan Walker also played PUBG MOBILE games with gaming influencers Liza Peachy, Faze Adapt and Scotty Sire.
“I think we share the same values,” said Walker. “Early on, I wanted to create something that was unique. To symbolize and create unity. When people put on a mask and hoodie like me, they will become a Walker. With PUBG MOBILE, when I start the game or put on a level-three helmet, I can be my own hero. And this is another kind of amazing unity.”
The PMCO 2019 will partner with Vivo as the official title and smartphone sponsor. It will feature a Spring and Fall Split, with the Spring Split covering ten regions including South East Asia, India, the Middle East, North America, South America, Europe, Korea, Japan, China and Wildcard. There are more than 35,000 teams who signed up for the Spring Split, and the online qualifications will begin on March 22 and end March 30, with the Global Finals held in Berlin in July.
“We’re setting 2019 up to be the year of PUBG MOBLE,” said Vincent Wang, General Manager of Global Publishing Department, Tencent Games. “Our first year anniversary party was an amazing event that brought together the influencers and musical talents of EDM superstar Alan Walker. We also announced our ambitious and exciting esports plan for the year, which will involve tens of thousands of teams and an astonishing $2.5 million in prize funds. It’s a big step in our development of an esports ecosystem for PUBG MOBILE which will lead the world in popularizing mobile game tournaments.”
PUBG MOBILE is now the globally-leading mobile game for monthly active users and has more than 200 million downloads (excluding China).
