PUBG Mobile opens registrations for 2025 with $500k prize pool on the line

PUBG Mobile continues to expand its esports footprint with the exciting announcement of the 2025 Global Open. Registration is now open, inviting amateur teams and players worldwide to vie for a piece of the impressive $500,000 prize pool. The event promises to be a thrilling opportunity for grassroots talent to shine on the international stage.

You can sign up for the 2025 PUBG Mobile Global Open (PMGO) until February 9th. The main event is scheduled to take place in Tashkent, Uzbekistan, from April 12th to 13th. This initiative is part of PUBG Mobile Esports' broader strategy to invest over $10 million in prize pools, third-party tournament incentives, and more, demonstrating their commitment to nurturing a robust competitive scene.

However, getting to the main event won't be a walk in the park. Participants must first navigate through a series of open qualifiers, with only the most successful teams advancing through multiple stages until a select few remain.

**Open for all**

Cultivating a vibrant esports community is no small feat, as evidenced by the challenges faced by other games like Overwatch. Yet, Krafton's efforts to foster a grassroots competitive scene for PUBG Mobile appear to be paying off. The competition is expected to be intense, especially with such a substantial prize at stake. This move comes ahead of PUBG Mobile's anticipated return to the Esports World Cup in Saudi Arabia, ensuring fans outside of this high-profile event are well catered for.
