Twenty four teams from nine competitive regions will be going battling out over the week for a share of the $400,000 prize money in the FACEIT Global Summit: PUBG Classic.

PUBG have teamed up with FACEIT for the event and Michele Attisani, CBO and Co-Founder of FACEIT explains why London was the prime location for the tournament.

He said: "From our stand point, London is a pretty natural location. We've been really successful with building esports events in the UK and London in general.

"In the past, we've had great success with our ECS and Counter-Strike and those events have sold out arenas."
