by

PUBG: Battlegrounds is teaming up with Payday, the popular game where players pull off heists together. As part of this event, players have a chance to win actual money in addition to in-game rewards.

Starting May 13th on PC and May 21st on consoles, PUBG is teaming up with Payday to add a new co-op heist mode to the game. They’re also hosting a competition for streamers with a $100,000 prize.

PUBG and PAYDAY Team Up to Create the Ultimate Heist Experience

Playing Payday with friends is incredibly fun, letting you choose between carefully sneaking through heists or going in with guns blazing to grab the cash.

The video games you illegally obtained can now be turned into actual money, offering a surprisingly realistic and engaging criminal experience.

The PUBG and Payday streamer competition is available to content creators on YouTube, Twitch, and Kick. A total of $100,000 in prize money will be awarded, split between two leaderboards, with the top 10 streamers on each leaderboard receiving a portion of the winnings.

Here’s how the PUBG x Payday Streamer Challenge leaderboards will work:

  • Streaming Ranking Leaderboard — Your ranking will be determined by the total number of hours watched on your PUBG: BATTLEGROUNDS stream during the event period.
  • Play Ranking Leaderboard — Your ranking will be determined by your total score in the PAYDAY mode, accumulated throughout the event period, which will include the money you’ve earned, plus kills (worth 500) and special kills (worth 5,000)

Those video game items you painstakingly collected can now be worth real money, offering a uniquely engaging and exciting way to profit from your efforts.

To join the streamer challenge, you’ll need to meet a couple of requirements. You must have at least 1,000 followers on your channel, and you need to have streamed for a minimum of 20 hours in the two weeks before the challenge begins.
