KRAFTON JAPAN, Inc. will hold “NIJIPUBG LAND,” a special event featuring 38 VTubers from the popular VTuber group Nijisanji, on the official Nijisanji YouTube channel from 17:00 JST on Saturday, May 30, 2026. Hosted by Kanae and Hoshikawa Sara, the broadcast will feature five varied competitions built around PUBG MOBILE.

38 Livers Compete Across 12 Teams in “NIJIPUBG LAND”

Alongside the classic battle royale mode, the event will feature parkour, a relay car race, and a color game built with PUBG MOBILE‘s “CRAFTGROUND” creative toolset, delivering a sports-festival-style lineup that goes a step beyond regular gameplay. Popular Nijisanji livers Kanae and Hoshikawa Sara will host the broadcast.

Participating livers are split into 12 teams that compete for points across every event. Team A is Koyanagi Lou, Sasaki Saku, and Leos Vincent; Team B is Ars Almal, Amami Yotsuha, and Fuwa Minato; Team C is Shishido Akari, Maimoto Keisuke, and Yorumi Rena; and Team D is Akabane Youko, Sofia Valentine, and Mato Mao — bringing together a wide range of popular VTubers from across the Nijisanji roster.

Five-Event Lineup and CRAFTGROUND Integration

Five events will run in total. Events 1 through 3 use PUBG MOBILE‘s “CRAFTGROUND” creative feature for parkour, a relay car race, and a color game, taking one step beyond the title’s pure battle royale roots into a sports-day style format. Event 4 is a bounty match on the “Sanhok” map, and Event 5 is a standard battle royale on “Erangel.”

A practice period runs from Sunday, May 24 through Friday, May 29, 2026, with each participating liver streaming on their personal channel. Viewers can follow each liver’s preparation right up until the main show.

The PUBG MOBILE × Nijisanji Collaboration in Context

PUBG MOBILE is a battle royale game where up to 100 players fight to be the last one standing; it launched in Japan on May 16, 2018, and has surpassed one billion downloads worldwide. Nijisanji, on the other hand, is a VTuber and virtual liver project that hosts roughly 150 livers.

KRAFTON JAPAN has run a steady stream of large-scale VTuber-oriented PUBG MOBILE collaboration events. This 38-liver edition is the latest of those, and team rosters and pairings are likely to draw attention well before the broadcast begins.

What Comes Next

After the individual practice streams, the main broadcast kicks off at 17:00 JST on Saturday, May 30. With Kanae and Hoshikawa Sara guiding 12 teams through five events scored on combined points, the run time is expected to be lengthy. The interplay between teammates and how CRAFTGROUND-powered unconventional events unfold will be the day’s main draws.

Editorial Take

As a collaboration between a major VTuber project and a tentpole game title, the scale of this event — 38 livers, 12 teams, 5 events — stands out. By stacking the program with CRAFTGROUND-driven unconventional events, the design highlights character chemistry and teamwork rather than relying solely on pure battle royale skill, signaling a clear intent to reach a broader audience. As the latest iteration of large-scale Nijisanji × game-title collaborations, Streamer Magazine’s editorial team will be watching viewership figures and any follow-on merchandise or streaming spinoffs closely.
