Format & PMGC Stakes

The BMIC 2026 utilizes a straightforward, high-intensity format. All 16 teams will drop into the same lobby to play a total of 18 matches across 3 days (6 matches per day in Squads TPP). Beyond the sheer prestige and the massive ₹1,00,00,000 prize pool, the stakes for international glory are immense:

  • The Champions: Will secure direct qualification to the PUBG Mobile Global Championship (PMGC) 2026 - Gauntlet Stage.
  • The Runners-up: Will also advance, securing a slot in the PMGC 2026 - Group Stage.

*Note: Should Team Soul (who have already secured PMGC qualification via BMSD 2026) finish in the Top 2, the qualification slots will naturally cascade to the next highest-placing eligible teams.


Event Details: The tournament runs from October 30 to November 1, 2026. Catch all the live action from the Dome SVP Indoor Stadium, Mumbai across official broadcast channels.
