PUBG Mobile Launches Global Open with Nearly 100,000 Players

The 2025 PUBG Mobile Global Open (PMGO) has kicked off, marking the first international PUBG Mobile Esports event of the year. With over 90,000 competitors registered, the Open Qualifiers began on February 13th, offering new talent a golden opportunity to rise through the ranks and secure a spot in the highly anticipated PMGO Main Event.

A hefty $500,000 prize pool is up for grabs, setting the stage for intense competition among teams. The tournament's amateur-only format ensures that emerging players can showcase their skills on a global platform.

Teams featuring at least one Ultimate 500-ranked player from Cycle 7 Season 20 or 21 have already advanced to Round 2 of the Open Qualifiers. In the coming weeks, these emerging squads will vie for a spot in the PMGO Prelims, where they will compete against the top teams from the Uzbekistan Offline Qualifiers.

From the Prelims, twelve teams will earn the opportunity to challenge PUBG Mobile's elite at the PMGO Main Event. Four professional 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. An additional four teams will join them from regional competitions such as the PMSL SEA Spring, PMGO Korea Qualifier, and the Peacekeeper Elite League Spring season.

The Open Qualifiers will continue until March 2nd, followed by the Prelims on April 10th-11th, leading up to the Main Event on April 12th-13th. The PMGO is just the beginning of an exciting year for PUBG Mobile Esports, with the PUBG Mobile World Cup and the PMGC scheduled to return later in 2025.
