S8UL Esports just dropped their lineup for the Esports World Cup 2025, happening from July 7 to August 4 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. They’re the only Indian crew repping at the event, and they’re going all in with eight different games. The big surprise? Their BGMI squad—Manya, Nakul, Ronny, Goblin, and Legit—was included in the roster reveal, which got fans hyped and wondering if they’ll actually compete in the World Cup.
S8UL Esports might participate in PUBGM World Cup
Here’s the deal: PUBG Mobile is banned in India, so seeing the BGMI team in the mix is a head-scratcher. There’s no official word yet on a PUBG Mobile slot for India at EWC 2025, but Indian BGMI teams have played in big PUBG Mobile tournaments before, like the 2021 Global Championship and 2022 World Invitational. Word on the street is that the winner of the ongoing Battlegrounds Mobile India Pro Series (BMPS) 2025 might snag a spot at the World Cup, which could explain why S8UL included their BGMI players in the announcement. Still, it’s all just talk for now, so fans will have to sit tight for something official.
