The Saudi Esports Federation (SEF) has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with PUBG Mobile to enhance esports opportunities in Saudi Arabia. The partnership includes the winner of the PUBG Mobile National Championship securing a spot in the $3 million PUBG Mobile World Cup, which will be held during the Esports World Cup in Riyadh this July.
Additionally, the MoU will merge the Saudi eLeague with the PUBG Mobile National Championship, taking esports in Saudi Arabia from grassroots to professional levels.
Earlier this year, the SEF also signed a partnership with Savvy Games Group to support esports development in the Kingdom through training programs, career awareness initiatives, and internships.
HRH Prince Faisal Bin Bandar, President of the Saudi Esports Federation, emphasized, “The SEF continues to take bold steps to strengthen the Kingdom’s leadership in the global esports arena. Through strategic collaborations with leading titles such as PUBG Mobile, we are expanding opportunities for our players, building sustainable pathways to international competition, and accelerating the development of a dynamic and thriving esports ecosystem.”
