As per Inside Sport’s reporting, the Blue Lock collaboration is structured around a Prize Path system, similar to previous mission-based events. Players can gain more loot while progressing through Prize Path.
Reportedly, in-game rewards include backpack embellishments, themed parachutes, weapon skins, and character-inspired outfits. However, neither PUBG nor Krafton has yet confirmed the exact items and event details for the PUBG Mobile x Blue Lock Crossover.
