Nepal's South Asian Games Gold in PUBG Mobile

Nepal won gold in PUBG Mobile at the South Asian Games in Guwahati. The result put Nepal on the regional esports map and gave PUBG Mobile a national achievement that no other esport title in the country has matched. PUBG Mobile was already the most widely played competitive mobile game in Nepal before the gold medal — the result confirmed its position as the country's primary esport.

The Nepal Esports Association (NESA) runs domestic esports competitions and oversees Nepal's national team programme. PUBG Mobile national championships and inter-club tournaments run through the year. Free Fire has an active mobile community in Nepal and runs as the secondary competitive title behind PUBG Mobile.

How PUBG Mobile and Free Fire Markets Work

PUBG Mobile and Free Fire both run as squad survival titles. Teams earn points through kills and where they finish in each round. The scoring structure shapes the market types available on both games. The most common markets for Nepali players:

• Match winner: Pick which team wins the overall match or series. Available across PUBG Mobile and Free Fire competitions at NESA events, PMPL South Asia and PMGC.
• Kill totals: A bet on how many kills a team records in a match. The most PUBG Mobile-specific market type, where eliminations affect scores directly in every round.
• Placement bets: A bet on where a team finishes in a match. Most active at PMGC and major tournament stages where placement points determine overall standings.
• Tournament outright: Back a team to win the entire competition before it begins. Most followed for the PMGC, where Nepali players track South Asian teams through the full tournament.

Getting Started with Esports Betting in Nepal

• Check the legal position before depositing. Every sportsbook EightOdds recommends holds an international offshore licence. Various statutes prohibit gambling in Nepal and no online sports betting licence is issued domestically. Review your own situation before depositing.
• Confirm PUBG Mobile markets are listed. Not every sportsbook covers NESA domestic events or PMPL South Asia. Check that PMGC coverage and South Asian regional PUBG Mobile events appear in the esports section before registering.
• Register with your exact eSewa name. Your sportsbook account name must match your eSewa or bank account registered name exactly. Mismatched names delay withdrawals.
• Deposit via eSewa or Khalti. eSewa is the most widely used digital wallet in Nepal and is accepted at most recommended sportsbooks. Khalti is accepted at most sportsbooks as an alternative. Confirm minimum deposit and bet amounts in NPR before funding your account.
