Famous soccer player Neymar Jr. is now the official ambassador for PUBG: Battlegrounds. This will give Krafton’s big battle royale a familiar face, which will promote the game with some activities in PUBG and outside of it.
Soccer and battle royale have something in common
A live stream is already starting today, initiating the partnership between footballers and Battle Royale. If you think about it, the two are a good match as well, as a soccer player’s stamina is definitely needed to pull off the many sprints in PUBG.
In the stream, Neymar Jr. will take on squads from around the world with his squad. His team includes South American content creators Gaulês, Netenho and Sparkingg. Players have a chance to win lots of G-Coins during the event.
More on PUBG Battlegrounds:
It starts at 18:00. While Krafton doesn’t name a platform for the stream, we assume you can follow it on the usual suspicious streaming channels – YouTube, Facebook, and Twitch. Then Neymar and his squad play on the new map Deston for fame, honor and above all the winner, winner, chicken dinner. Another event will be announced on July 21st.
Neymar Jr himself is a huge PUBG fan and says: “Becoming a part of PUBG is fantastic. I’m very proud to be a part of this new project and can’t wait to play on the new map.”
