The BGMI International Cup (BMIC) 2025 has announced a significant adjustment to its PMGC 2025 seed allocation rules, ensuring a more transparent and fair path to the PUBG Mobile Global Championship. Under the updated system, teams advancing to PMGC will now be determined strictly by their BMIC results, rather than national league rankings or previous advisories. Check out the detailed information about the new rule below.
BMIC 2025 Updates Rule for PMGC 2025 Qualification
Previously, the ‘National League Ranking Team Seed Recognition’ provision was recommended, but organizers have clarified it will not apply this season. Teams that earn a PMGC seed through the BMIC results will qualify, and if a team already holds a PMGC seed via another route but secures another at BMIC, their additional seed will be inherited by the next highest-ranked BMIC squad. This change reduces confusion, eliminates duplicate qualification, and ensures the most competitive teams ascend to the global stage.

Teams Competing at BGMI International Cup 2025
BMIC 2025 will feature 16 elite squads—eight from India, four from South Korea, and four from Japan. Below is the full roster of teams battling in New Delhi from October 31 to November 2, 2025:
- India: Orangutan, K9 Esports, Team Soul, True Rippers, Gods Reign, Nebula Esports, Mysterious 4, Madkings
- South Korea: Dplus, NongShim RedForce, Jecheon Phalanx, DRX
- Japan: Reject, Reignite, Making The Road, CAG Osaka
Notably, Orangutan (India) and Dplus (South Korea) have already qualified for PMGC 2025 through their regional performances. Should either of these teams secure a top position and an additional PMGC slot at BMIC, the slot will be passed to the next-best scoring team in the BMIC standings—preserving competitive integrity and maximizing regional representation.
Impact on Tournament and Fans
This rule update not only heightens excitement for teams on the edge of qualification but also assures fans that PMGC slots are awarded purely on international cup performance. With India’s top eight teams facing off against powerhouse rosters from Korea and Japan, BMIC 2025 is set to deliver high-stakes action and intense competition in front of a global audience.
