PUBG Mobile’s first international esports event in 2026, the PUBG Mobile Global Open Season 1 (PMGO), has officially opened its registration window.

Registrations for the tournament are now open for players from around the world in the PUBG Mobile in-game tournament tab until February 9th.

Participants will compete in the in-game qualifiers, scheduled for March 2026. Besides slots to national or regional PMGO events, PUBG Mobile has revealed that players can earn rewards as well.

This includes a PMGO avatar frame along with an avatar, a PMGO Esports Player Pop-Up Finish, PMGO Esports Player Info Card, and also a mysterious reward.

The in-game qualifiers provide an open pathway for players to national or regional events. From here, the best teams advance to the PMGO 2026 Season 1 Regional Finals, the last stop before the offline Main Event.

PMGO 2026 Heads To SEA

PUBG Mobile Esports had announced earlier that the PMGO 2026 Season 1 Main Event will take place in Southeast Asia (SEA) from June 2nd to 7th with a prize pool of $500,000 (~3,67,890) on the line.

A total of 32 teams are set to compete in the Main Event, which will include a group stage, survival stage, and the grand finals.

In the group stage, 32 teams will be split into two groups, with the top six from each group advancing to the grand finals. The teams placed 7th to 14th in each group will then compete in a one-day Survival Stage for the remaining four slots in the grand finals.

This year’s PMGO has added stakes since it will provide teams with valuable PMGC points. Furthermore, the tournament will happen twice in 2026, with the second edition taking place in Pakistan.

ESI Ranking System
We’ve created a ranking system to help you quickly know how good each gambling platform is. As gamblers ourselves, we know which factors matter most to you, so we follow a best-in-class methodology to test each one with no stone unturned. Once done, we then rank each platform based on the following tiers:
  • A-Tier High-quality sites that deliver a top experience every time. They boast strong performance, nice features, and reliable support, but are just shy of perfection.
  • B-Tier Solid platforms that are worth a spin. They’re safe, fun, and functional, but may be lacking advanced features or have minor drawbacks.
  • S-Tier Reserved for elite operators only. These go well beyond the norm with lucrative bonuses, rewarding promotions, lightning-fast payouts, and a flawless experience overall.
