Get ready for some intense esports action! The PUBG Mobile Global Open Qualifier Finals are happening this weekend. This crucial stage will see 80 teams (down from an initial 90,000!) compete across five regions, with only 12 advancing to the prelims and ultimately vying for a spot in the main PUBG Mobile Global Open.
The main event is scheduled for April 12th and 13th, preceded by the prelims on the two days prior. This promises to be a major esports spectacle, especially considering PUBG Mobile's growing prominence in the competitive gaming scene, even returning to the Esports World Cup.
Esports' Growing Popularity
The level of engagement esports garners from the average gamer is debatable. While titles like the Overwatch League experienced initial success, their appeal waned for many. However, PUBG Mobile enjoys immense popularity, particularly in Asia, where a dedicated esports fanbase thrives. The upcoming Esports World Cup further underscores the global open's potential to attract a large and passionate audience.
