MLBB returns to Riyadh for Esports Cup 2025

• This year's prize pool reaches $3 million
• Wildcard qualifying matches run from July 10-13
• The championship finals will conclude the tournament in late July

The Mobile Legends: Bang Bang Mid Season Cup returns to Riyadh for the 2025 Esports World Cup, featuring international competition with an impressive $3 million prize pool. As part of EWC's expanded mobile esports initiative, the MSC will continue its participation through the 2026 tournament edition.

The action begins with Wildcard qualifiers from July 10-13 during the EWC Festival, giving unqualified teams a final opportunity to secure their Main Event positions. The official MSC tournament follows from July 23 to August 2, showcasing 16 elite MLBB teams from around the world.

This year maintains the successful tournament structure - a group stage with two double-elimination brackets of eight teams each, leading to single-elimination playoffs for the top eight competitors. Beyond the multi-million dollar prize pool, the tournament MVP will earn an additional $10,000 bonus.

Regional qualifiers are currently in progress worldwide. Top teams from established leagues like MPL Indonesia, Philippines, Malaysia, and LATAM battle for tournament spots, while champions from emerging regions including Cambodia, Türkiye, and Myanmar have already secured or are nearing qualification.

The North America Challenger Tournament concluded with BloodThirstyKings claiming victory. The MSC x EWC China Qualifier and July's MSC Wildcard will determine the remaining tournament participants.
