LOS ANGELES - December 31st, in the year of our Lord 2020: From January 1st, 2021 aspiring mobile esports semi-pros from across the globe are invited to sign up and compete in the new 2021 PUBG MOBILE Club Open (PMCO), the biggest ever PUBG MOBILE semi-pro esports competition to date. With the enormous success of the PMCO in 2020 which saw tens of thousands of teams register, and PUBG MOBILE’s commitment to continue growing their esports ecosystem to support competitors of all levels, the PMCO 2021 will now be available across 27 regions, with registration open until January 24th.

2020 was a standout year for PUBG MOBILE esports with over 120,000 teams from around the world applying to compete, showing outstanding skill and vying for their chance to move up into the next level competition. The PMCO’s expansion means more players will be enabled to continue improving their skills, get a feel of competitive play, and pave their path to the highest levels of mobile esports competition, in the year when PUBG MOBILE esports announced $14,000,000 in prize money. In 2021, PMCO will expand to more regions in Europe, Middle East, South Asia, LATAM and Southeast Asia. This is the first split for PMCO to include Southeast Asia regions(Thailand, Vietnam, Indonesia, Malaysia & Singapore), where the semi-pro teams were previously registered by participating in the national championships. The full list of regions able to sign up to the PMCO in 2021 are:

CIS, Europe WC, MENA WC, Africa, South Asia WC, LATAM WC, North America, Malaysia & Singapore, Southeast Asia WC, HMT, Wildcard, Turkey, Germany, UK, France, Saudi, Iraq, Egypt, UAE, Pakistan, Indonesia, Thailand, Vietnam, Nepal, Bangladesh, Brazil, Mexico

PUBG MOBILE players around the world are invited to register their teams for the PMCO 2021 between January 1st to January 24th here. As the kick-off of PUBG MOBILE esports program in 2021, PMCOs represent the entry gate to the PUBG MOBILE Global Championship (PMGC), PUBG MOBILE’s most prestigious tournament, the final fight for the greatest honor and largest prize money - and the chances are open for everyone! With a prize pool almost trebling that of this year ($5,000,000 to $14,000,000) and record breaking viewership numbers in 2020, the sky for PUBG MOBILE esports and its players in 2021 is beyond the limit. The next even bigger stages await aspiring esports professionals.

The PUBG MOBILE esports ecosystem began in 2018 with grassroots events across the world, and 2020 saw the completion of the amateur to pro circuit with the introduction of the PUBG MOBILE Global Championship (PMGC), PUBG MOBILE Pro League (PMPL), and the major expansion of the PMCO. In 2021, the PUBG MOBILE esports ecosystem will expand to more regions with more professional esports support and bigger prize pool. The program now supports competitors of all levels from amateur to semi-pro and pro across multiple countries and regions, ensuring a clear path for talented players to progress.
