PUBG Mobile Global Open (PMGO) 2026 Season 2 is set to kick off on 20 October in Lahore, Pakistan, and a Japanese PUBG Mobile player who won the inaugural season in 2024 asked for slots for India, Japan, and South Korea. Notably, neither of the 2026 editions (PMGO 2026 Season 1 and Season 2) offered slots for these three regions.
The organisers, Krafton and Level Infinite, have made the 2026 PMGO editions exclusive for global region teams. Notably, India, Japan, and South Korea play different versions of PUBG Mobile. However, these regions regularly secure PUBG Mobile World Cup and PMGC slots.

Sharing the PMGO 2026 Season 2 post on his Instagram story, he wrote, “We can’t even play tho. KRJP INDIA SLOT PLEASE”
