MOONTON continues to invest heavily in NA
MLBB is one of the most popular mobile MOBA titles globally. However, most of its player base is focused on the SEA market. Over the past year, however, MOONTON has been focusing on North America as well.
This began with a LAN event in the MLBB NACT Fall 2022 in Las Vegas. Now, the tournament has returned with a much longer format and a LAN Finals as well.
Additionally, after the spring season, the developer has confirmed a fall season as well in the MLBB esports 2023 roadmap. This season will take place from August to October and will also determine the NA representatives at the M5 World Championship.
