"Mid Season Cup Returns to Riyadh for 2025 Esports World Cup"

The Mobile Legends: Bang Bang Mid Season Cup (MSC) is set to electrify fans once again as it returns to Riyadh for the 2025 Esports World Cup. With a hefty $3 million prize pool on the line, this year's competition promises to be fiercer than ever. As part of the growing focus on mobile esports, the MSC is also slated to feature prominently in the 2026 edition of the tournament.

The action kicks off with the Wildcard stage, scheduled from July 10th to 13th during the EWC Festival. This stage offers teams that haven't yet qualified a final chance to secure their place in the main event. Following the Wildcards, the MSC tournament itself will run from July 23rd to August 2nd, showcasing 16 of the world's top MLBB teams.

The tournament format remains tried and true, featuring a group stage with two double-elimination brackets, each containing eight teams. The top performers will then advance to a single-elimination playoff to determine the champion. In addition to the massive prize pool, the tournament MVP will receive a $10,000 bonus.

Qualification battles are already heating up around the globe. Teams from premier regions such as MPL Indonesia, the Philippines, Malaysia, and LATAM are fiercely competing for their spots. Meanwhile, champions from regions like Cambodia, Türkiye, and Myanmar are either securing or nearing qualification.

The North America Challenger Tournament has concluded, with BloodThirstyKings clinching their spot. The MSC x EWC China Qualifier and the MSC Wildcard in July will finalize the lineup for the main event.
