Today, August 3, 2025, in Riyadh, the PUBG Mobile World Cup 2025, which features a $3 million prize pool, a 16-team elite lineup, and the unique SMASH Rule format, is scheduled to crown its winner.
Despite the fact that no Filipino teams made it to the grand finals, the PUBG Mobile Philippines community is still incredibly supportive, saturating social media and streams with encouraging posts.
Who Is in the Lead?
With 118 points heading into the last day, the Yangon Galacticos are just ahead of Alpha Gaming, who have 117 points. One of the most dramatic endings in PUBG Mobile history is set up by this extremely narrow margin.
When the teams adjust to the SMASH Rule, a scoring twist that heavily rewards aggressive eliminations while still valuing survival time, fans can anticipate clutch plays, tense rotations, and high-stakes final circles.
Why This Finals Is Unique
This finals is special for a number of reasons. At $3,000,000, it has one of the biggest prize pools in mobile esports this year. The SMASH Rule Format encourages constant action and riskier plays, which keeps the competition fierce. The teams’ international diversity, each bringing unique play styles from different parts of the world, adds to the excitement. Furthermore, despite the lack of a Philippine team, a sizable audience watched the finals, demonstrating the Filipino fans’ intense enthusiasm for PUBG Mobile esports.
