Two of Jordan’s Esports teams have qualified for the Asian Games to be held in Japan, after competing in the games of Mobile Legends: Bang Bang and PUBG Mobile, following the Asian qualifiers held across several countries.

In the Mobile Legends: Bang Bang competitions hosted by Singapore with the participation of 22 national teams, Jordan came through a tough group stage within the West Asia group, which included Saudi Arabia, Iran, Oman, and the United Arab Emirates.
