PUBG Mobile Esports World Cup: Stage One Concludes, 12 Teams Advance
The first stage of the PUBG Mobile Esports World Cup (EWC), held as part of the larger Gamers8 event in Saudi Arabia, has concluded. The initial field of 24 teams has been narrowed down to 12, setting the stage for a thrilling final showdown. With a $3 million prize pool up for grabs, the remaining teams are vying for their share of the winnings.
For those unfamiliar with the EWC, it's an esports tournament showcasing prominent games in Saudi Arabia. PUBG Mobile's participation has proven successful, drawing significant attention. Currently, Alliance leads the pack.
Following a week-long break, the final stage of the PUBG Mobile World Cup will commence from July 27th to 28th. Before then, however, the 12 eliminated teams will compete in the Survival Stage on July 23rd and 24th, battling for two coveted spots in the final. This promises to be a highly competitive and exciting event.
Global Impact
While the long-term impact of the PUBG Mobile World Cup on fan engagement remains to be seen, its announcement has generated considerable buzz. It's important to note, however, that despite its name, this tournament isn't the largest event on PUBG Mobile's esports calendar. With other major events scheduled for later this year, the EWC's prominence might be somewhat eclipsed.
Nevertheless, the Survival Stage offers a compelling preview of the intense competition to come. For those seeking other mobile gaming experiences in the interim, a list of the best mobile games of 2024 (so far) is available for your perusal.
