Grand Finals

The Finale will take place over three days. The top six teams from the Regular Season and the top 10 teams from the Playoffs will fight for the PEL Summer trophy.

Weibo Gaming won the PUBG Mobile Hong Kong Invitational 2025, which featured 16 teams from across the world. The firm signed Order last month, who was previously associated with Nova Esports and has won two PMGC titles.

ThunderTalk Gaming and LGD had a mediocre run in the Hong Kong Invitational. Tainba faltered completely in the event and were at the bottom of the standings.

JD Esports had a below-average run in the spring edition of the event. The club features legendary player Paraboy in the lineup. Popular clubs like The Chosen, Four Angry Men, Nova Esports, Six Two Eight, and KONE also had a disappointing run in the PEL Spring. They will aim to improve their performances in the upcoming event.
