Teams like A1 Esports gained international attention, even qualifying for the PUBG Mobile Global Championship (PMGC) in 2020.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>PUBG Mobile was released by several publishers across various regions, including Krafton, Tencent, and VNG Games. By December 2022, the game had reached a milestone of approximately 1.3 billion downloads and generated over $9 billion in revenue. Besides that, it stands as one of the <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/List_of_most-played_mobile_games_by_player_count\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">most-played mobile games in history<\/a>, with 300 million monthly players.
