MediaWeb, in partnership with Naver Pay (Npay), is hosting the 'CBL: PUBG with Npay' ranked event on its gameplay platform CraftBox from September 15 to November 14 for 'PUBG: BATTLEGROUNDS' (hereinafter PUBG).
The competition is divided into Season 7 and Season 8. Season 7, running until October 14, determines rankings based on cumulative kills, while Season 8, held from October 15 to November 14, ranks players by cumulative survival time. Players can participate through Pica PC Cafes nationwide or via CraftBox on personal PCs.
Mileage will be awarded to the top 1,000 players in each season based on their rankings. First place per season receives 1 million mileage, second place receives 300,000 mileage, and third place receives 100,000 mileage. Separate rewards have also been prepared for participants in specific ranks, such as 7th, 77th, and 777th, as well as for users who take part in both seasons.
Alongside the ranked event, events combining gameplay and Npay payment conditions are also running. Among users who complete three missions—earning a ranked event score, completing challenges, and making an Npay payment—300 candidates will be selected, with one winning an 'iPad Air 11 (M4)'. Additionally, a raffle for mileage and 'PUBG' merchandise will be held for users who make Npay payments at Pica PC Cafes.
Ahn Soo-cheol, head of the Service Business Division at MediaWeb, stated that the event was designed to link ranking competition with Npay payment benefits and challenge rewards, adding that MediaWeb will expand marketing models based on CraftBox that connect gameplay with PC Cafe visits and payment experiences.
