  • With the Esports World Cup 2024 seemingly a roaring, or at least formidable, success there's been plenty of publishers confirming the return of their top games for 2025. Garena's Free Fire has already confirmed their return, and now Moonton's Mobile Legends: Bang Bang is also confirmed to join the lineup.
The Esports World Cup 2025, set to take place in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, will feature Mobile Legends: Bang Bang (MLBB) as one of its key titles, marking a significant milestone for the game's global recognition. This event, organized by the Esports World Cup Foundation, aims to unite the global esports community by hosting a diverse range of games, with MLBB being one of the first mobile games included. The tournament will offer a substantial prize pool, with MLBB alone contributing $3 million, and will be part of a broader initiative to foster esports development through various programs like the Club Support Program and the Game Developer and Publisher Support Program. This inclusion not only highlights the growing popularity of mobile esports but also underscores the commitment of Saudi Arabia to become a central hub for competitive gaming.
