The ALGS Championship Prize Pool Is Set
Thanks to the Apex Legends Community, the ALGS Championship Prize Pool More Than Doubled
Hi ALGS fans and competitors,
With the first-ever Apex Legends Global Series Championship well underway, we’re thrilled to share the total prize pool reached USD $2,580,590. Thanks to you, we’ve more than doubled the original franchise-record prize pool of USD $1 million.
This milestone would not be possible if it wasn’t for the passionate community making Apex Legends one of the most popular franchises in the world. Despite an unprecedented 2020 that left us no choice but to pivot the ALGS to fully online competition, we’re seeing more players play and more fans watch at an increasing rate. With now more than 100 million total Apex Legends unique players, and the ALGS Winter Circuit Playoffs hitting a franchise record 100,000 average minute audience, the future of competitive gaming shines bright.
Thank you to all the competitors and fans to help make this possible and we can’t wait to see which Legends will be crowned ALGS Champions.
Hi ALGS Competitors and Fans,
The ALGS Championship is fast approaching. We’re excited to announce we’re upping the prize pool from the original USD $1,000,000. How much is up to you. Starting May 18, item bundles will be sold in the Apex Legends store to boost the prize pool for the ALGS Championship. For each Mechameleon, Boared to Death, Wild Speed and Silverback bundle purchased, we will add USD $5 to the prize pool and for each Animal Kingdom bundle purchased, we will add USD $20 to the prize pool, up to a cap of USD $2,000,000. This could bring the total potential prize pool up to USD $3,000,000. We’re excited to take the stakes of the ALGS Championship even higher, while giving you another way to show your support for your favorite teams.
In total, five different bundles will be sold through June 1st. Four of the bundles will contain one Legendary Legend Skin, one Epic Banner Frame and one Epic Gun Charm. Finally, the Animal Kingdom Bundle will include all the items of the sale in one convenient package. Here’s a sneak peek at all of the items available in the ALGS Championship Bundles:
