HyperX becomes a PUBG Global Championship Sponsor

HyperX, the gaming headset, and peripherals company, is now a sponsor for this month’s PUBG Global Championship. The event features a $2 million prize pool and will also add a share of the revenue from the sale of in-game items to the pool.

The deal continues a partnership between both companies that includes past events like April’s FACEIT Global Summit: PUBG Classic and August’s PUBG Nations Cup 2019. Similar to those events, HyperX will provide earbuds, gaming headsets, keyboards, and mice for competitors to use at the event. Lagardère Sports reportedly brokered the deal as the exclusive sales agent for PUBG Global Championship.

PUBG Corp. central esports business development manager, Julian Schwartz said in a release regarding the deal:

“HyperX has been a very important part of PUBG Esports this year, and we are very pleased to announce that they will be a part of the PUBG Global Championship in a major way. Esports require many different pieces of hardware—and here at PUBG Esports, we do not compromise on quality. HyperX is a uniquely great partner, as they can provide an array of items and peripherals without compromising quality or style.”
