Tournament organiser Faceit has revealed details on the Faceit Global Summit: Sunday Roast Showmatch for the PUBG event, taking place on April 21, the final day of the competition at the ExCeL London, which brings together top teams in the battle royale game to fight it out.
Pro players, community members, and broadcast talent will be included in the showmatch, and there's a prize pool of over $50,000 USD awarded as bounties for a series of achievements, designed to encourage "varied and exciting competition" on Miramar, Vikendi, and Sanhok.
