Additionally, Challengermode will provide external platform support for setting up competitions, while Trovo will provide broadcasting support.
Moreover, the two parties will work together on hosting the PUBG MOBILE Pro Team Tournament Series, which aims to provide PUBG MOBILE fans and professional teams with a chance to compete against each other.
Philip Hubner, Chief Business Development Officer at Challengermode, stated: “We’re incredibly excited to be hosting Trovo Titans’ PUBG MOBILE Pro Team Tournament Series. Trovo’s focus on mobile gaming perfectly aligns with Challengermode’s goal of making esports accessible to as many people as possible.
“The fund we have set up for PUBG MOBILE teams and organisers is a vital part of encouraging esports participation from the grassroots level up in this evolving space, and we’re glad that the technology of the Challengermode platform can be part of making that possible.”
According to the release, the partnership seeks to support the growth of PUBG MOBILE esports by offering players the chance to compete for notable prizes and thus ‘give back to their community’.
The broadcast of the associated PUBG MOBILE Pro Team Tournament Series, set to take place in the coming months, will be available via dedicated PUBG MOBILE streams on the Trovo platform. More information regarding the event has yet to be released.
