The prize pool will be distributed among the top four teams, with the winner receiving about $3,300. The runners-up will pocket about $1,600 while the third and fourth-place teams will earn around $800 each.

Garena has prior experience with mobile esports, successfully supporting the competitive scenes for games like Arena of Valor and Free Fire. Many fans will be curious to see what the company does with Call of Duty: Mobile tournaments moving forward.
