A recent video from @PUBGMobileEsports has revealed the whole 2026 roadmap for PUBG Mobile Esports. According to the PMGC 2026 Slot Distribution, 38 teams across different regions, and one team from the host country will face each other in Turkey for this S-Tier tournament. And it features a hefty prize pool of $3,000,000 USD.

While the official date is yet to be revealed, officials have confirmed the tournament will commence within Novemer to December 2026 time frame. The region allocations are certainly exciting as the MENA region gets the largest number of slots (6 teams), while Africa only gets one in the upcoming PUBG Mobile tournament. Keeping that in mind, this article will explore the PMGC 2026 Slot Distribution in detail.

PMGC 2026 Slot Distribution: Teams Ready To Secure Their Spots

It's that time of the year when Krafton finally announced the PMGC 2026 Slot Distribution. Teams across the world are ready to face each other in the final arena in Turkey. While 32 teams from different regions will have to play region-based tournaments to secure their spots in Pubg Mobile Global Championship, the remaining eight will be invited, depending on their performance. While the MENA region gets a total of 6 slots, the EA and TR region get 5.

India Only Secures One Invite For PMGC 2026

India is one of the top countries in the SEA region that features some of the best teams across the globe. Despite that, India gets only one invited spot for PMGC 2026. If we take a look at the PMGC 2026 Slot Distribution, China secures three invites, while the rest of the countries have to be satisfied with only one. However, there's a catch. India still has the opportunity to secure two more spots at the PMGC through BMIC 2026 by playing against Korean and Japanese teams.

On the bright side, however, Krafton has allocated two invited spots for India at the PMWC 2026. It's certainly a huge move going forward, especially the growth of BGMI Esports in this country.
