Apex Legends players receive info on $1 million Global Series Championship

14/01/2021 This was previously reported to have been leaked information, but was in fact sent to all ALGS players.

Competitive Apex Legends players are getting very excited after receiving an email announcing the Apex Legends Global Series Championship. The email explains that the event will take place after the culmination of the ALGS Winter Circuit, and it will boast a $1,000,000 - the biggest in the history of the Global Series.

60 teams will enter the tournament, and they'll be able to secure a spot based on their Winter Circuit performance, cumulative ALGS points, or a Last Chance qualifying event. This puts a lot of pressure on teams fighting in this weekend's Winter Circuit, who are now chasing a spot in the Championship.

The email was sent out to all registered ALGS players, and can also be read at the bottom of the Winter Circuit announcement on the EA site. Apex Legends' lead partnerships manager, Shahin Kanafchian, hinted that more information would be reaching players soon, but warned against reading too much into speculation.
