In February 2020, Kazi Arafat Hossain founded the A1 Esports. A1 made their first appearance in PUBG Mobile Club Open (PMCO) Spring Split 2020. But unfortunately, they couldn't qualify for the next round. In August 2020, they participated in the Fall Split of the tournament and manage to qualify for the PUBG Mobile Pro League (PMPL) Fall Split 2020. In that tournament, they finished in 3rd place and qualified for the PUBG Mobile Global Championship (PMGC) 2020.[1][2] In July 2021, they donated US$44,000 to UNICEF.[3]

In May 2024, A1 Esports qualified for the PUBG Mobile Super League (PMSL) Spring 2024, which was held offline in Nepal.[4] In June, they qualified for the grand finals of the tournament, where the top 5 teams qualified for the PUBG Mobile World Cup (PMWC) 2024.[5][6]

In August 2024, A1 Esports has headed to Nepal to play PUBG Mobile Super League (PMSL) Fall 2024, where the top 4 teams will qualify for the PUBG Mobile Global Championship (PMGC) 2024.[7][8]
