Sharing at the launching ceremony on the morning of November 15, Mr. Do Viet Hung - Chairman of the Southeast Asian E-Sports Federation (SEAEF), Chairman of VIRESA sent congratulations to the 3 Vietnamese e-sports teams participating in the upcoming world championship.

At the same time, VIRESA will also continue to coordinate with VNGGames to organize a national championship in PUBG Mobile to maintain an environment for players to learn and rub before heading towards the biggest sporting event in Asia next year. The two units will closely coordinate in the selection and assessment of athletes' abilities through training plans and experience accumulation.

The 2025 PMGC tournament will start from November 24 with the start of the Gauntlet round, with the presence of D' Xavier. The groups Green (of Team Secret) and Red (of Team Flash) will continue to compete on November 28 - 30 and December 2 to December 4.
