ALGS Championship Details Revealed
Read up on how to qualify for and watch the ALGS Championship.
Hi ALGS Competitors and Fans,
The Winter Circuit Playoffs are this weekend. On March 27 and 28, we will crown the new Champions of the Arena, and award the remaining prize pool of USD $503,000. After that, all eyes are on the Championship and we’re here to provide you with more details on the epic conclusion to the Apex Legends Global Series. Whether you want to compete for the USD $1,000,000 prize pool or watch all of the action unfold, we’ve got the details for you here!
Regional Championships
It’s important we acknowledge the 5 regional ALGS Championships will be held online. The COVID-19 pandemic, while improving in some parts of the world is still significantly impacting many of us on a daily basis. We’re eager to return to live events, and we are monitoring local government and CDC guidelines to best inform when we can do so.
Fight for Your Spot
Earlier this year we shared the minimum number of teams that would qualify for the Championship from each region. We’re excited to share with you now an expanded roster of teams that will qualify through Winter Circuit Playoffs performance, cumulative ALGS Points, and the Championship LCQ. See the table below, and ALGS Official Rules for more details. For those who haven’t qualified after the Winter Circuit Playoffs and cumulative ALGS Points, the Championship LCQ is, you guessed it, your last chance to qualify. If you want to compete, the Championship LCQ is scheduled for April 23-25, with registration opening on Monday, March 29. Registration for the Championship LCQ will be open to all eligible players who have achieved Gold IV Rank on PC, in Season 8 Split 2, by 12 PM PDT on April 21.
