Qualifying for the M6 World Championship comes from the competing nation/region's Mobile Legends: Bang Bang Professional League or commonly known as "MPL." However, regional qualifiers in the North America, Turkey, Myanmar, China and European regions are also held to broaden the reach of the Championship's teams. A single team shall also qualify from the M6 Wildcards.

M6 has returned the number of natural qualifiers for MPL Malaysia to two qualifying teams. Instead of a singular slot, two teams from the Mekong region will now have an opportunity to redeem a spot in the group stages through the M6 Wildcard event.
