The PUBG Mobile Global Championship (PMGC) 2024, which concluded in London over the weekend, had a slightly lower viewership than its 2023 edition but still attracted over 900,000 peak viewers.
Specifically, PMGC 2024 recorded a peak of 927,000 viewers and an average viewership of just under 287,000, according to esports data platform Esports Charts.
The event, which took place at the ExCel in London, concluded PUBG Mobile’s 2024 competitive calendar and saw South Korean organisation Dplus walk out victorious. PMGC 2024 had a total of 28.4m hours watched.
This year’s edition was slightly weaker in terms of viewership when compared to 2023, with last year’s event garnering a peak of 980,000 viewerships and an average viewership of 307,000. Despite the slight drop, the event is still the most-watched 2024 PUBG Mobile event and is the sixth-most-watched event in the game’s history.
Because PUBG Mobile is a mobile MOBA game most popular in Asia, it is not surprising that the Indonesian language platforms recorded the highest number of views, peaking at 284,000. The most popular broadcast platform was YouTube, followed by TikTok, Kick and Bigo Live, with Twitch contributing just 2,207 viewers.
KRAFTON, the developer of PUBG Mobile, also announced several details for the 2025 competitive season during the 2024 PMGC finals, including a strong expansion of its grassroots efforts and a large prize pool for the 2025 season.
