Earlier today, PUBG released details of how the PCS Charity Showdown events will take place between May 14th-31st.

The remaining eight teams will qualify from the PCS NA Charity Showdown Qualifier, which will happen between May 2nd-17th. The players will be competing for $200k, with $100k as the prize and a $100k to support COVID-19 relief. The winning team will have their $100k donated to the charity of the winning team's choice.
