If you needed some convincing, PUBG Mobile is easily rivaling Fortnite and Call of Duty's crossover potential these days. It isn't just movies and music stars that Krafton is setting its gaze on, though. The new PUBG Mobile Blue Lock collaboration brings the hit manga to the battlefield, but it's more than just a few skins. Before the crossover fully kicks off, there's a set of free rewards available for PUBG players that you can grab on Thursday, May 14, 2026.
Like previous PUBG Mobile events, there's always the usual offerings of cosmetics and store bundles, but the real juice is within the Prize Path system. Similar to Call of Duty's premium pass for in-game events, the Prize Path dishes out exclusive gifts - if you don't mind parting with some UC, of course. Krafton is yet to detail exactly what's up for grabs, but we reckon that you'll be able to claim weapon skins, Blue Lock-inspired outfits, parachute designs, and goodies to kit your backpack out with.
If this Prize Path follows previous additions, you can expect to drop at least 600 UC to unlock it. The full Blue Lock PUBG Mobile event begins on Friday, May 22, 2026. I'm hoping that Krafton pushes the collaboration a bit harder with in-game areas themed around Blue Lock. The slickest crossovers take advantage of a game's world, just like the ongoing Godzilla x Kong event in Call of Duty Mobile, where the two titans are skirmishing at Rebirth Island.
We have confirmation on one thing, though, and that's character sets for Blue Lock's top-tier strikers. According to Krafton's social media, you can get sets for Yoichi Isagi, Seishiro Nagi, Meguru Bachira, and Rin Itoshi. While these aren't one-to-one skins of these characters, you can at least outfit yourself with some highly accurate pieces of gear based on their likeness. Blue Lock isn't the only pairing that Krafton is teeing up, either.
When you're not on the pitch, how about a ride in a Ford Mustang GTD or a Ford F-150 Raptor R? Yes, Krafton and Ford's team-up is dropping fresh vehicles into the game's maps, starting from Friday, May 15, 2026, and finishing on Tuesday, July 7, 2026. It's random, in pure PUBG fashion, but hey, a new set of wheels can't hurt.
It all follows the free mobile game's 8th anniversary, which also debuted an official PUBG Mobile anthem, recorded by none other than One Republic - because, sure.
