If you're looking for something to watch this weekend and you're a PUBG Mobile fan, you're in for a treat. The PUBG Mobile World Cup, held in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, has just finished its Survival Stage. The competition now moves directly toward the Grand Finals, where the ultimate champion will be crowned in this prestigious event.

Although it's a relatively new tournament, the PUBG Mobile World Cup has already drawn significant interest from top-tier competitors. Many of these players dominated the leaderboards during the Group Stages. For those who didn't perform as strongly, the Survival Stage provided one last opportunity to secure a spot in the finals.

Horaa Esports came out on top in the Survival Stage and will join the eight teams that had already qualified. The Grand Finals are scheduled to run from August 1st to August 3rd and are expected to deliver intense, action-packed matches.

A Battle for the Crown

PUBG Mobile's immense popularity, which may even surpass its PC counterpart, is undeniable. However, some may view the PUBG Mobile World Cup as lacking grassroots origins, since it was established as part of the Esports World Cup—an initiative that gaming enthusiasts in Saudi Arabia are actively promoting.

There is a concern that the event could be perceived as artificially inflated. Regardless, the competing players are undoubtedly among the best, not only in PUBG Mobile but in the wider esports scene. It's definitely worth watching to see how they perform under pressure.
