PUBG Mobile, the smartphone adaptation of the massively popularPlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds(PUBG)on Steam, has recently collaborated with one of the most iconic fighting game franchises developed by Bandai Namco for their 8th installment,Tekken 8. The collaboration comes in the form of an event that runs through May 22, 2025, and creates traction between the fan bases of the two franchises. It does so by incorporating characters, skins, and weapons themed aroundTekken’s well-known fighters into PUBG’s battle royale setting.
The event’s structure centers around a Prize Path, a tiered, level-based, rewards system that allows players to unlock items and progress through each by completing objectives. WhilePUBGhas previously collaborated with several well-known franchises — such asResident Evil, Godzilla, andThe Walking Dead— this isTekken’s debut inPUBG’s dynamic crossover series, where the mobile multiplayer game continues to attract players by tailoring collaborations to appeal to regional demographics. In this particular case,Tekkenhappens to be a widely known fighting game franchise not only in South Asia but also worldwide.
How the Pubg Mobile X Tekken 8 Collaboration Works
The Players Can Access the Event With UC Cash
ThePUBG MobileandTekken 8crossover is structured around a Prize Path event, where players unlock exclusiveTekken-themed rewards by completing missions and accumulating points, similar to how most onlinemultiplayer gamestreat in-game events. Players can access these exclusive items primarily through the Prize Path, which requires an initial purchase using UC,PUBG Mobile’s in-game currency. After unlocking the Prize Path, players accumulate points by completing specific missions and can redeem these points for various rewards.
The Event Only Features Three Characters From Tekken
The points then earned allow players to progress through levels and earn rewards tied toTekken’s iconic characters including Jin Kazama,Kazuya Mishima, and Nina Williams. Although the event is globally available, the collaboration’s main beneficiary audience lies in the South Asian region where these three characters are arguably hugely synonymous with the fighting game franchise itself, hence, allowingPUBG Mobileto get the best traction out of it.

Special Emotes and Exclusive Character Skin
There are two main types ofTekken-themed emotes in this event: the Collaboration Entry Emote and the Victory Results Emote. Both of these signify signature moves of the respectiveTekken 8characteritself. For instance, Kazuya’s emote zeroes-in on a crossed-arms pose and Jin’s signature calm and ready pose.
