PUBG Mobile continues to expand its esports footprint with the launch of registration for the eagerly awaited 2025 Global Open. This event is a golden opportunity for amateur teams and players worldwide to showcase their skills and vie for a significant portion of the $500,000 prize pool. Registration is open until February 9th, giving you ample time to sign up and prepare for the qualifiers.
The main event is scheduled to take place in Tashkent, Uzbekistan, from April 12th to 13th. This tournament is a key part of PUBG Mobile Esports' strategy to bolster its grassroots competitive scene, with a reported $10 million allocated for prize pools, third-party tournament incentives, and more. However, to reach the main event, participants must first navigate through a series of open qualifiers, progressively eliminating teams until only the best remain.
Fostering a vibrant and thriving esports scene is no small feat, as evidenced by other games like Overwatch. Yet, Krafton's efforts to nurture a grassroots competitive environment for PUBG Mobile are showing promising results. With such a substantial prize at stake, competition is expected to be intense. This move comes ahead of PUBG Mobile's participation in the Esports World Cup in Saudi Arabia, demonstrating their commitment to keeping the global fanbase engaged and entertained.
