PUBG Mobile Global Open Launches with Nearly 100,000 Participants

The 2025 PUBG Mobile Global Open (PMGO) has kicked off, marking the first international PUBG Mobile Esports event of the year. With an impressive registration of over 90,000 competitors, the Open Qualifiers began on February 13th, offering a golden opportunity for emerging talent to showcase their skills and vie for a coveted spot in the PMGO Main Event.

A hefty $500,000 prize pool is up for grabs, setting the stage for intense competition. As an event open exclusively to amateurs, the PMGO ensures that new faces get their moment in the spotlight. Teams will need to navigate through multiple rounds, proving their mettle before they can challenge established PUBG Mobile Esports organizations.

Teams boasting at least one player ranked in the Ultimate 500 from Cycle 7 Season 20 or 21 have already secured their place in Round 2 of the Open Qualifiers. Over the coming weeks, these up-and-coming squads will battle it out for a chance to advance to the PMGO Prelims, where they will face off against the top performers from the Uzbekistan Offline Qualifiers.

From the Prelims, twelve teams will earn the right to compete in the PMGO Main Event against the elite of PUBG Mobile’s professional scene. Four teams—Regnum Carya, Nigma Galaxy, 4Merical Vibes, and Influence Rage—have already secured their spots based on their performances at the PUBG Mobile Global Championship (PMGC) 2024. Four additional teams will join them, selected from regional competitions such as the PMSL SEA Spring, PMGO Korea Qualifier, and the Peacekeeper Elite League Spring season.

The Open Qualifiers are scheduled to run until March 2nd, with the Prelims set for April 10th-11th, leading directly into the Main Event on April 12th-13th. This tournament is just the beginning of an exciting year for PUBG Mobile Esports, with the PUBG Mobile World Cup and the PMGC slated to return later in 2025.
