Look, let's be honest—Kakao Games is looking to turn up the heat. On the 22nd, the publisher announced the launch of 'Cool Summer Festa,' a massive integrated event for PUBG, developed by Krafton's PUBG Studio and serviced locally by Kakao Games.

The initiative aims to shower both Kakao PUBG players and those frequenting internet cafes across the country with rewards. The roadmap includes web-based events for the Kakao community, PC bang promotions, and an open call for participants for the platform-agnostic clan tournament.

Kakao Games is dangling a rather generous carrot: a prize pool worth a total of 100 million won. By logging in and grinding out matches, players earn points to enter draws for high-spec custom gaming PCs, gaming laptops, LG StanbyME screens, iPad Airs, and top-tier peripherals. You can even snag up to 1,000,000 G-Coin (30-day limited), with extra points handed out to newcomers and returning players to help them get a head start.

There is also a 'Summer Point Exchange' event running concurrently. Those points you have earned from playing can be swapped for in-game skins or limited-time G-Coin. Both events are slated to run from July 22nd through August 18th.

For the die-hard PC bang crowd, events are being held at PICA and Geto affiliated locations. Playing PUBG at these spots earns you tickets for prize raffles, along with exclusive mileage coupons specific to each PC bang.

Perhaps most interestingly, the '2026 PUBG Integrated Clan Cup' is now accepting registrations, boasting a total prize pool of 20 million won. Celebrating its 3rd anniversary this year, this tournament brings together clans from both Kakao and Steam platforms to see who truly reigns supreme in the esports arena. You can check the official announcements for the full schedule and registration details.
