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 whittled down to 12, setting the stage for an exciting 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 a Gamers8 spin-off designed to showcase prominent esports titles in Saudi Arabia. PUBG Mobile's participation has proven successful, with Alliance currently leading the pack.

Following this weekend's intense competition, the 12 qualifying teams will enjoy a one-week break before the final stage, scheduled for July 27th and 28th.

Global Impact and Future Events

While the EWC's overall global impact remains to be seen, the PUBG Mobile World Cup has generated significant buzz. However, it's important to note that this isn't the largest event on the PUBG Mobile esports calendar. With other major events planned for 2024, the EWC's prominence might be somewhat eclipsed.

For fans eager for more PUBG Mobile action before the final stage, a Survival Stage will take place on July 23rd and 24th. The 12 eliminated teams will compete for two coveted spots in the main event, promising a thrilling competition.
