Battlin Open Season 1: Teams Can Win a BGIS Slot Before Registrations Begin

Battlin by KRAFTON will host the Battle Royale tournament Battlin Open Season 1, the first event on its Battlin gaming portal.

Battlin Open Season 1: Registration Dates, Format and Prizes

Track 2 will take place from November 24 to 29, with 32 teams, including 28 invited teams and the top four teams from Track 1. Based on points scored, the top 16 teams will reach the finals on November 29, where they will compete for the title of the first Battlin Open winner.

What Is Battlin and How Does the Platform Work?

KRAFTON introduced Battlin earlier this month as a platform that brings different parts of gaming tournaments together. Players can find tournaments, register for competitions, check results, and receive rewards through the same platform. Battlin also lets teams check reward conditions and payment timelines before they register. The platform handles reward payments directly and does not involve wagering, staking, or betting. Tournament results depend on players’ performance.

James Yongkwan Kim, Lead – Battlin, KRAFTON, said: “For most teams, the road to BGIS starts when registrations open. With Battlin Open, it starts now. A team that enters Track 1, competes, and wins will have earned its place in BGIS before official registrations even begin. That is exactly what Battlin was built for – a structured, transparent route from open participation to real recognition.”
