PUBG MOBILE has revealed its schedule for the 2021 PUBG MOBILE Pro League (PMPL) circuit, adding seven new regions and a $14m (£10.1m) prize pool — the highest in mobile esports to date.

The new regions include North America, Brazil, LATAM, CIS, Turkey, Arabia, and Western Europe. PUBG Mobile also teased a new ‘World Class’ tournament for this summer that would see the top teams from all regions go head-to-head.

Esports Insider says: PUBG is ready to jump into a busy year of esports events, with PUBG MOBILE’s new regions being announced and the new ESL PUBG Masters beginning April 7th. The mobile game’s ban in India proved to be a major setback, but these new regions could help raise awareness and make up the difference in player hype.
