The worlds of football and battle royale collide as PUBG Mobile is collaborating with Liverpool FC, as players can unlock the team’s branded kit in-game.
The collaboration with the football club kicks off from November 12 until December 20. By participating in a series of classic mode games, players can unlock limited edition Liverpool FC branded outfits and earn free in-game gear and items, such as parachutes and backpacks.
In a statement on the club’s official website, Liverpool FC’s senior vice-president of digital Drew Crisp said: “In an increasingly digital world, we pride ourselves on being able to innovate and engage with our fans on the vast array of digital platforms they favour.”
“With the realm of online gaming growing and evolving amongst our fans, PUBG Mobile is the perfect platform to connect with them in a different but very relevant context – intertwining the world of online gaming and football through the power of games and play.”
PUBG MOBILE X Liverpool Football Club Collaboration is coming soon on Nov 12.
