Nodwin Gaming and ESL have announced the groupings for the upcoming PUBG New State Pro Series India Challenger Finale, featuring a prize pool of ₹1 crore. 24 teams have been divided into three groups, competing over two days to secure a spot in the Grand Finale.
The Challenger Finale will take place on January 26 and 27, and the 24 teams will compete in a round robin format at the LAN event. Only the top 16 from the overall scoreboard will make it to the Grand Finale, which is slated to be played on January 28 and 29.
GodLike, the top-performing team in the Mobile Challenger phase, has been placed in Group A. The second and third teams, Gods Reign and Nexgen have been placed in Group C. Here are the three groups of eight teams each that have qualified from the previous round:

All matches of the Challenger Finale will be broadcast on the YouTube and Facebook channels of Nodwin Gaming and ESL India from 5 pm onwards. The organizers have also confirmed that a 10-point scoring system will be implemented in the two upcoming stages. The participants will have to modify their gameplay to collect more points as the new scoring rules lower the placement points compared to the 15-point system.
