DPLUS CROWNED 2024 PUBG MOBILE GLOBAL CHAMPIONS IN HISTORIC TOURNAMENT RESULT
Today, after months of preparation, skillful displays, and high emotions, Dplus took the 2024 PUBG MOBILE Global Championship (PMGC) title at London’s ExCeL Centre. The South Korean team excelled throughout the weekend, securing three wins and 153 points, and will now take home the 2024 PMGC title, official trophy, and lion’s share of the $3,000,000 prize pool — the biggest in UK history.
As the culmination of the 2024 PUBG MOBILE Esports circuit, this end-of-year competition saw 16 of the best teams from around the globe go head-to-head in 18 electrifying matches across three days. With an incredible 94 eliminations, three victories, and plenty of other podium placements throughout the weekend, Dplus came out victorious with 153 points.
The young South Korean team, Dplus, traveled across the globe to compete live at London’s ExCeL Centre, aiming for their first-ever PMGC title. In a moment of triumph, they stepped into the spotlight not just to celebrate their success but to express heartfelt gratitude to their supporters.
“We want to thank the fans who supported us from Korea to here,” shared one team member. “We also want to thank our coach, who couldn’t make it, for always believing in us.”
Thrilled to be competing on a global stage in the UK, the team reflected on the diversity of the event. “We love being here and seeing fans come from all over the world,” they said, emphasising the unique unity esports brings to its global audience. Now, with the prestigious PMGC title under their belt, Dplus has set ambitious goals for 2025 and beyond. “We’ll stick together and play one more year together for the best results,” they affirmed, already looking ahead to their next chapter.
Looking back on the wider tournament, day one kicked off with a safe win on Sanhok for the Mongolian team Falcons Force, backed by a respectable 11 eliminations. Moving into the second match, Nigma Galaxy secured the Chicken Dinner, following a nailbiting two vs one against Indonesia’s VOIN DONKEY. Concluding the third game, Team Spirit made their first real appearance into the spotlight, taking first place with a hefty bag of eliminations, but it was 4Merical Vibes who truly showed off the power of an aggressive approach, with 23 eliminations earning them the fourth win. Team Spirit secured the only double victory of the day in the fifth game, before the day concluded with an incredible grenade throw and flank from Dplus to take the top podium spot.
Not unexpectedly, day two completely shook up the leaderboard, with Turkey’s Regnum Carya Bra Esports jumping from twelfth to first throughout the day, starting off with a modest victory in match seven on Sanhok. New tactics and strategies came to life throughout the day, with Regnum Carya Bra making use of vehicles to take down their opponents, whilst other teams like DRX prioritised carefully timed flanks to secure easy eliminations. Though INFLUENCE RAGE and Tong Jia Bao took pride in their own successes, the day ended with Regnum Carya Bra in first place, with Dplus and DRX closely on their tail.
Heading into the final day, there was no clear winner in sight, with just a few points separating the top five teams. INFLUENCE RAGE took the first Chicken Dinner, with Nigma Galaxy and Regnum Carya Bra taking the next two with some solid eliminations, reaching out for the title. With blows traded back and forth, it was the final game of the day which saw the greatest tension, with unexpected circle placements and incredible performances placing Regnum Carya Bra and Dplus neck and neck. In the end, it was the South Korean team which came out on top, heading straight for the hill to secure a defensive position. Dplus took the 2024 PMGC title, trophy, and lion’s share of the prize pool with just a one point advantage.
James Yang, Senior Director of PUBG MOBILE Global Esports, said:
“It has been another fantastic year of PUBG MOBILE Esports and witnessing the final tournament here in London has been one of its biggest rewards. The PUBG MOBILE Global Championship is always the most highly-anticipated event of the year, and we’re very grateful for all the players, coaches, staff, and fans who have devoted their time to experience this incredible moment together. I want to say a huge congratulations to Dplus for their victory, and to all teams for giving it their everything. We cannot wait for next year, where we know the players will continue to beat records and set new standards.”
Teams will no doubt be looking forward to some well-earned rest moving towards the New Year, but with exciting changes coming to PUBG MOBILE Esports in 2025, the competition will continue to heat up. Looking to develop grassroots esports to support the next generation of professional players, PUBG MOBILE Esports will invest more than $10,000,000 into prize pools, third-party tournament incentives, female-focused events, and more. Widening opportunities for amateur players to rub shoulders with pros, next year’s circuit will see more than 20 regional tournaments across SEA, EU, MEA, CSA, and the Americas, offering pathways to global, high-stake competitions.

Soft2Bet has launched TopBet.ro, a new Romanian sportsbook designed to cater to local habits and preferences. Built with a clear focus on motorsport and match-day culture, the brand combines competitive odds and fast mobile journeys with an auto-themed identity that resonates with local fans.
From launch, TopBet.ro has been tuned to the way Romanians follow sport. Football and motorsport are front and centre, with timely markets, match-day boosts and content that reflects supporters’ weekly rituals. Romania’s proximity to major European circuits and easy short-haul travel make it a natural home for motorsport fans, and TopBet.ro responds with creative campaigns, themed missions and seasonal offers built around grand prix weekends. The same care is evident throughout the interface: clear navigation, quick bet placement, and a clean, mobile-first design.
Yoel Zuckerberg, Chief Product Officer at Soft2Bet, said: “With TopBet.ro, we set out to create a brand that feels Romanian from the first tap, then added MEGA missions and challenges that turn derby days and grand prix weekends into journeys people return to. What we prove on our own brands becomes the toolkit we offer partners, combining culturally tuned products with measurable engagement and the ability to scale with minimal integration effort.”
Brand representative from TopBet.ro commented: “TopBet.ro is designed for Romanian fans who want more from every match. Together with Soft2Bet, we built a platform that connects sport, competition, and rewards in a way that feels natural and exciting. Our goal is to give every player the chance to experience the game like a champion.”
Alongside sports, TopBet.ro offers a comprehensive casino lobby for quick breaks or a change of pace, featuring popular slots, live dealer tables, and sports-themed titles, all delivered in a mobile-first format with clear navigation and quick load times. The experience is powered by Soft2Bet’s performance-first platform, which delivers speed, stability, and smooth gameplay, along with responsible play tools tailored to local requirements. A key part of this is MEGA (Motivational Engineering Gaming Application), the engagement engine that turns play into progress through missions, challenges and quests that unlock rewards and keep sessions fresh.
The approach has already proved successful in Romania, where seasonal quests and local events are firm favourites among players. By turning everyday actions into clear milestones and rewards, MEGA lifts session depth and repeat visits, helping first-time players become long-term customers.
