The first official PUBG Mobile tournament of the 2023 season, the PMPL, is about to kick off in several regions. The event in Vietnam starts on February 15 and features the country’s best 20 squads battling in a two-week-long contest.
The company altered the format of the Pro League in Southeast Asia, removing the Grand Final from the mix and instead having a single stage to determine the champion. The scoring system has also been modified with a new 10-points matrix that is more focused on kill-based gameplay.
Each week, 25 matches will be played over the course of five days, from Wednesday to Sunday. During the first week, from February 15 to 19, the teams will be grouped randomly into five sections, each consisting of four units.
The performances in the first week of the PMPL 2023 will determine the seeding of teams into groups for Week 2, which runs from February 22 to 26. The tournament's overall scoreboard will be determined by the points earned by them over the course of the 10 matchdays.
