Year 4: Partnership Program

We’re excited to introduce to you the 12 partner teams for the Apex Legends™ Global Series (ALGS) Year 4!

Pro teams have been an integral part of the success of the ALGS since its inception in 2020. That’s why every year, we provide a number of partner teams with a variety of support programs and contributions from Electronic Arts (EA) and Respawn. We mentioned this program during the early days of our esport, and we feel like this is the right time to elaborate further on our commitment to the ALGS, and the players and teams that make this esport so special.

In ALGS Year 4, each partner team will be provided with a financial stipend in order to help them establish a stable base on which to build their competitive programs. We are also working with the teams to provide additional media and content opportunities, including media training, interviews with press and media, a dedicated photo shoot at each LAN’s media day, the option to host licensed tournaments, plus the opportunity to host team booths at our events, where teams are free to sell merchandise and activate in ways that make sense for them and their communities. There are a number of additional community-related benefits included in this program but, without getting into the nitty gritty, this support is part of our commitment to building a stronger, innovative ALGS alongside teams that share our vision for creating the best battle royale esport in the world. 

This year, we ran an application process for a number of notable organizations currently in, or interested in, the ALGS. The 12 teams ultimately selected were chosen based on a number of factors, including their commitment to the ALGS ecosystem, past competitive performance, and their overall willingness to continue partnering with us in new and interesting ways to grow the ALGS.

With all of that said, let’s say hello to our 12 teams for Year 4!

We’re so excited to welcome these incredible orgs to the partner program this year. Everyone at the ALGS is committed to supporting the ecosystem as much as possible, and we’ll continue to iterate on this model each year as we figure out how best to support teams. All of us behind the scenes feel passionately that listening to feedback from our pro players and the ALGS community is integral to building the Apex Legends competitive scene. So to everyone who has spoken up: Thank you, hearing your feedback helps us continue to learn and grow together, and shows us where we can continue to improve. 

As a reminder, Year 4 of the ALGS is underway with the Preseason Qualifier tournaments, but it’s not too late to register for your chance to qualify for the ALGS Pro League.
