Mobile Legends: Bang Bang Set for 2025 Esports World Cup in Riyadh

• Prize pool reaches $3 million for 2025
• Wildcard stage runs from July 10 to 13
• Finals scheduled for late July

Mobile Legends: Bang Bang will return to Riyadh for the 2025 Esports World Cup Mid Season Cup, delivering intense global competition and a massive $3 million prize pool. As part of the EWC’s expanding focus on mobile esports, the MSC is confirmed to reappear in the 2026 tournament edition.

The Wildcard stage, set for July 10 to 13 during the EWC Festival, offers unqualified teams a final opportunity to secure a spot in the main event. The official MSC tournament will then take place from July 23 to August 2, showcasing 16 of the world’s top MLBB teams.

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

Global qualifiers are in full swing. Teams from leading 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 the July MSC Wildcard will finalize the competing teams.
