Game publisher Tencent and Chinese esports tournaments organiser VSPN have announced that their co-hosted esports competition Peace Elite League (PEL) has signed a strategic partnership deal with American mixed martial arts league Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC).

PEL is the official league for Tencent’s mobile shooter known as Game for Peace or alternately Peacekeeper Elite, a modified version of PUBG Mobile.

PEL’s official Weibo post on the news does not share many details on the collaboration, which has the theme “Unstoppable Ambition,” but it notes that this is UFC’s first esports partnership in China and that the companies plan to activate the alliance in various ways.

“In the future, the two parties will carry out in-depth cooperation in multiple dimensions, and innovatively inject sports genes into esports events,” reads the translated post.
