ALGS Championship format, prize pool, and live broadcasts

For each of the North America and EMEA regions, 40 teams will play in the upcoming tournament. Whereas 30 squads will participate from each of the APAC North, APAC South, and South America regions. Moving on, the group stage of the ALGS Championship for each region will feature a round-robin format.

With teams split into groups of up to 10 teams, each group will go head against other groups. After that, total points accumulated across the group stage will serve as the basis to advance 20 teams into their region’s Championship Finals. Ultimately, the event finals will implement a match point format for establishing team placements and prize pool distribution.

The highest-ranked teams from NA and EMEA will each take home $102,000. Meanwhile, the winners from APAC North and South will bag $68,100 each, with $42,000 going to the winning team from SA.

Additionally, the player with the most kills during the grand finals will also earn the title of “Apex Predator” and a hefty bonus. This bonus prize amount is $4,800 in NA and EMEA, $2,400 in both APAC regions and $1,600 in South America. If multiple players tie for the most kills, they will receive an equal share of the Apex Predator bonus.

Fans will be able to watch all the action of the ALGS Championship, including LCQ events, group stages, and the finals, live on Twitch and YouTube. For more details about the broadcast schedule and prize pool distribution, you can check out EA’s official blog.
