HOK on 28 September, MLBB on 1 October: Asian Games dates to save

Honor of Kings, PUBG MOBILE and Mobile Legends: Bang Bang will have their medal-deciding sessions within four days at the Aichi-Nagoya Asian Games. For fans following Malaysia, that means a busy stretch from 28 September to 1 October.

There is a clear Malaysian stake. Bernama reported on 19 August that the Malaysian Esports Federation was targeting at least five medals from nine events, with HOK and MLBB among its medal hopes. That is a federation target, rather than a prediction of results.

Three sessions to mark on the calendar

JeSU lists HOK’s championship bracket through the final on 28 September, 8am–7pm Malaysian time. PUBG MOBILE’s final session follows on 29 September, also 8am–7pm. MLBB’s final session is scheduled for 1 October, 1pm–6pm. These are session windows, not confirmed start times for individual Malaysian matches.

The competition begins earlier than those medal dates. JeSU’s 14 September update lists eFootball group play from 22 September and PUBG MOBILE’s first day on 28 September. The venue is Aichi Sky Expo. Japan is one hour ahead of Malaysia; all times above have already been converted.

Check the stream’s region before making plans

JeSU has announced Japanese domestic coverage through TBS Sports’ YouTube channel for selected events. That announcement does not confirm Malaysian viewing access or a Malaysian-language broadcast.
