Which city hosted the 2018 PUBG Global Invitational?

The story behind the answer

Berlin hosted the 2018 PUBG Global Invitational. The tournament took place at Mercedes-Benz Arena in the German capital from July 25 to 29, 2018, bringing together 20 teams from regions including Europe, North America, China, Korea, Japan, Southeast Asia and Latin America.

The event was PUBG's first official world-level tournament. It used both third-person perspective (TPP) and first-person perspective (FPP) competitions, rather than treating the game as a single-format esport. Gen.G Gold won the TPP title, while China's Oh My God won the FPP competition.

Berlin is easy to confuse with other major esports cities because PUBG events have since been staged in locations such as Los Angeles, Shanghai and Seoul. However, those cities hosted other PUBG competitions or esports events. The 2018 Global Invitational specifically belongs to Berlin and its Mercedes-Benz Arena venue.
