PUBG Mobile 2025: $500k Prize Pool Registration Opens

PUBG Mobile continues to bolster its esports scene with the opening of registration for the 2025 Global Open, inviting amateur teams and players from around the globe to compete for a significant prize. With a grand prize of a half-million-dollar pool, the stakes are high for the 2025 PUBG Mobile Global Open (PMGO). Registration is open until February 9th, setting the stage for the main event scheduled for April 12th to 13th in Tashkent, Uzbekistan.

This event is a crucial part of PUBG Mobile Esports' strategy to enhance its grassroots competitive scene, with a substantial $10 million earmarked for prize pools and third-party tournament incentives. However, to reach the main event in Uzbekistan, participants must first navigate through a series of open qualifiers, progressively eliminating teams until only the best remain.

Building and sustaining a vibrant esports ecosystem is no small feat, as evidenced by other games like Overwatch. However, Krafton's efforts to cultivate a grassroots competitive environment for PUBG Mobile appear to be paying off. The competition will undoubtedly be intense with such a lucrative prize at stake, especially as PUBG Mobile gears up for its return to the Esports World Cup in Saudi Arabia. This move ensures that fans and players not directly involved in high-profile events remain engaged and well-catered for.
