• Prize pool reaches $3 million this year
• Wildcard stage runs from July 10 to 13
• Grand finals set for late July

The Mobile Legends: Bang Bang Mid Season Cup will return to Riyadh for the 2025 Esports World Cup, delivering fierce global competition and a massive $3 million prize pool. As mobile esports gain momentum, the MSC will also feature in the 2026 tournament, reinforcing EWC’s dedication to the genre.

The Wildcard stage, held during the EWC Festival from July 10 to 13, offers unqualified teams a final shot at the main event. The official MSC tournament, running from July 23 to August 2, will showcase 16 elite MLBB teams battling for supremacy.

This year’s format retains its proven structure: a group stage with two double-elimination brackets of eight teams, leading to a single-elimination playoff for the top eight. Alongside the multimillion-dollar prize pool, the tournament MVP will earn a $10,000 bonus.

Qualification rounds are in full swing worldwide. Teams from powerhouse regions like MPL Indonesia, Philippines, Malaysia, and LATAM are competing for spots, while champions from Cambodia, Türkiye, and Myanmar are either confirmed or nearing qualification.

The North America Challenger Tournament has concluded, with BloodThirstyKings earning their place. The MSC x EWC China Qualifier and July’s MSC Wildcard will finalize the competing lineup.
