James Yang, Director of PUBG MOBILE Global Esports, said in the release: “Qualcomm Technologies is a world leading technology innovator, especially with regards to what they’ve achieved in their extensive, first-to-mobile feature set in Snapdragon Elite Gaming, and we’re proud they’ve chosen to be the title sponsor of PUBG MOBILE World League. Season Zero is hugely ambitious. Connectivity is key for mobile gaming and having Qualcomm Technologies, a driving force behind the launch of 5G, is essential for us, especially with regards to Season Zero, which is operating on a truly global scale.”

Season Zero is currently ongoing; beginning on July 11th and continuing until August 9th. Despite the short nature of the online-only season, Season Zero has a fairly lofty prize pool of $850,000 (£657,650) attached. The season sees all 40 teams in the PMWL use the Qualcomm SnapDragon Mobile Platform to compete.

With PUBG Mobile poised to be one of the dominant mobile esports leagues – likely outpacing the PC PUBG esports scene – Qualcomm has a great platform to show off its latest 5G products.
