If you can’t log in to PUBG when the BLACKPINK virtual concert is taking place, or you’d simply prefer to watch someone else play, there will most likely be loads of people streaming the show live.
We’ll embed some streams from Twitch and YouTube here on the day of the concert, so make sure you check back closer to the time.
What songs will BLACKPINK perform in the PUBG concert?
There’s no word on an official setlist for The Virtual concert yet, but it’s been revealed that BLACKPINK have recorded a “special track and music video” designed especially for this occasion.
Based on previous video game concerts, we’d expect BLACKPINK to perform around four to six songs and this will most likely include all of their biggest hits like Kill This Love and How You Like That.
The group will have special 3D avatars made for the concert and players will also be able to obtain “eye-catching” outfits inspired by their looks which can be worn on the battlefield.
