Apex Legends Global Series Split 1 Playoffs Update

Competition Transitions to Online Format as Global Coronavirus Response Evolves

Hello ALGS fans,

Today we’ve made the difficult decision to move the ALGS Split 1 Playoffs to an online regional competition format. We sincerely apologize for the late-breaking nature of this news.

Our priority is protecting our competitors, employees, tournament partner staff, and communities. As we continue to monitor the Covid-19 Omicron variant, review the continuously changing country-by-country travel restrictions, and digest the direction given to us by health officials (including the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and World Health Organization (WHO)), we’ve concluded a global in-person January event with players traveling from as many as 40 countries is not possible. 

The Split 1 Playoffs will now feature five separate online tournaments, with the top 20 teams from the Split 1 Regular Season in each region competing in a Match Point series. The $1M USD Split 1 Playoffs prize pool is now divided across the five regional events. 

We’ll continue to keep our fans as updated as possible and will provide more ALGS competitive event information when appropriate. We want to reiterate that should conditions allow, we intend to return to LAN competition this May for the ALGS Split 2 Playoffs.

Adjustments to the ALGS Playoffs points system account for the move to five regional Split 1 Playoffs.
