The PGS 12 Grand Finals close out the 2026 PUBG Global Series and will settle the last part of the PGS Points standings that decides who reaches PUBG Global Championship 2026. Circuit 4 is the final push of the season. At the start of the circuit, up to 240 points were available across its three events, and the final standings are only locked in once PGS 12 ends.
PGS 12 Grand Finals: What Is at Stake
PGS Circuit 4 runs from October 14 to November 1 and includes PGS 10, PGS 11, and the Circuit Final, PGS 12. Together, these three events complete the 12-event PUBG Global Series 2026. Once PGS 12 concludes, the final season standings are set, and the top eight teams earn their places at PGC 2026.
PGS Circuit 4 Schedule and PGS 12 Format
- PGS 10: Group Stage on October 14, Winners Stage on October 15, Survival Stage on October 16, and Final Stage on October 17–18.
- PGS 11: Winners Stage on October 22, Survival Stage on October 23, and Final Stage on October 24–25.
- PGS 12: Survival Stage on October 29, with Grand Finals running October 30 through November 1.
At PGS 12, the top eight teams in the Circuit 4 PGS Points standings, based on results from PGS 10 and PGS 11, advance directly to the Grand Finals. The remaining 16 teams compete in the Survival Stage for the other Grand Finals spots. You can follow the PGS 12 Survival Stage coverage for that part of the event.
PGS Points Standings Before the Final Circuit
The standings below reflect the end of Circuit 3, not the current picture after PGS 10 and PGS 11. Virtus.pro led with 261 points, followed by Made in Thailand (224), 17Gaming (223), and T1 (208). The eighth and final PGC qualification spot was held by Petrichor Road with 152 points. Falcons, in seventh, sat two points ahead at 154, while Gen.G Esports, in ninth, trailed the cutoff by seven points at 145.
The gaps around the cutoff were narrow, so Circuit 4 could shift the picture considerably.
How PGS Points Decide PGC 2026 Seeding
The top eight teams in the final PGS Points standings, accumulated across PGS 1 through PGS 12, qualify for PGC 2026. Placement also determines where each team starts its PGC journey. The team finishing first goes directly to the PGC 2026 Grand Finals, the second-place team enters at Survival Stage Day 1, and teams finishing third through eighth begin in the Qualifying Stage.
For teams already inside the qualification zone, Circuit 4 is about climbing for a stronger seed. For those outside it, this is the last chance to force their way in.
Double Points: Up to 240 PGS Points in Circuit 4
PGS 10 and PGS 11 each award 60 points to the winner, with points distributed down to 16th place. PGS 12 doubles those values, giving 120 points to the winner and 96 to second place. The maximum a single team could earn across Circuit 4 is 240 points (60 + 60 + 120). Only the PGS 12 points remained open at the time of this preview. PGS 10 and PGS 11 results are not covered here.
For fans following the PGC 2026 qualification race, every match in the Grand Finals could matter.
