• The 2025 PMRC Rondo Cup wrapped up last weekend
• Yangon Galacticos emerged as champions
• Their dominant points lead secured the victory

The 2025 PMRC Rondo Cup, a premier PUBG Mobile esports event, concluded last weekend with Yangon Galacticos claiming the title. The team earned the largest share of the $20,000 prize pool, a reward presented by PUBG organizers.

The tournament unfolded on PUBG's newest and largest map, Rondo, hosting 16 elite teams. These squads earned their spots through various qualifiers, including D'Xavier at PMSL SEA Spring, Rangers at PMCL Spring, and R3GICIDE at PMSL CSA Fall.

Yangon Galacticos clinched the win under the innovative SMASH format rules, requiring teams to amass 30+ points and secure a match victory. After six matches, no team met these criteria, so Galacticos’ commanding points lead sealed their triumph.

Global Showdown

HORAA Esports and Bigetron Esports claimed second and third places, respectively, highlighting the success of the Rondo Cup. The event underscores PUBG Mobile’s growing esports ambitions, which have gained momentum since 2024.

Interestingly, the SMASH rule, introduced for the first time, didn’t result in a win under its criteria. Organizers will likely evaluate its return, weighing whether it fosters more skilled and dynamic gameplay in future tournaments.
