The lineup features returning stars like Goblin and Manya, along with new talent such as LEGIT.
With a strong mix of experience and fresh energy, Team Soul aims to make a major impact on the global stage.

The Esports World Cup (EWC) 2025 is shaping up to be the most worldwide gaming event of the year, taking place with activity in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, from July 7 to August 4, 2025. All the participation from the various popular titles such as EA FC 25, Mobile Legends Bang Bang, Tekken 8, and StarCraft II is a go!

Currently, the conversation is around the possibility of Battlegrounds Mobile India (BGMI) making a potentially unexpected appearance. Establishing this possibility even further was the latest roster reveal from S8UL Esports. While nothing has been official yet, the eagerness among the fans is evident.

Though BGMI is not yet confirmed as a title at the Esports World Cup 2025, recent news has ignited much talk. The community began buzzing when S8UL Esports included their Team Soul BGMI roster in their official EWC 2025 roster announcement.

The buzz about this roster announcement surprised several people because PUBG Mobile (BGMI's global counterpart) is still banned in India. Still, as far as example is concerned, it's not entirely unprecedented as Indian teams have participated in international PUBG Mobile competitions in the past (PMGC 2021 and PMWI 2022) despite the ban, and the rumors are that the Winner of BMPS 2025 would automatically qualify for EWC 2025 which might also indicate a potential entry of BGMI too.

On May 31, 2025, S8UL Esports made its roster announcement for EWC 2025 and made a big splash with BGMI stars Manya, Nakul, Ronny, Goblin and Legit in its squad. Now fans are stimulating the possibility that it could be Team Soul that will be competing in BGMI under the PUBG Mobile label at the global stage.

Further compounding the interest is speculation that the winner of BMPS 2025 could represent India at EWC, according to various insider speculation. Possibly explaining the BGMI squad within S8UL's EWC announcement, but no official confirmation has emerged as of yet.
