MPL Singapore Season 10 will commence on October 4th and run to November 2nd, retaining its grassroots format with one slot to the M7 World Championship up for grabs.

The MPL SG Season 10 carries a prize pool of SGD 40,000 (~£23,161). First introduced in Season 9, the promotion/relegation-based format gives community teams a chance to enter the league during a later stage, providing these rosters with a shot at the playoffs.

MPL SG will begin with the Seeded Stage, where six invited organisations will lock horns for four slots to the playoffs. These are RSG Singapore, Kingdom Esports, EVIL, Team Flash, Absolute Zero and Ignite Gaming.

The bottom two will face community squads emerging from Challenger Qualifiers, giving fresh teams a pathway into the league. From each Challenger Qualifier, two teams will compete with the relegated teams for the final two slots at the Playoffs.

The Playoffs, from October 31st to November 2nd, will see six teams compete at The Centrepoint in Singapore. Fans can tune into the competition live on the MPL Singapore YouTube channel.

MOONTON also announced that local beverage chain iTEA has joined the tournament as a presenting partner. The brand will roll out a nationwide campaign featuring limited-edition MPL Singapore drinks and scratch card giveaways.

Unified MLBB Esports Singapore Initiative 2026

MOONTON also announced a key change to the region for 2026. After Season 10, Singapore’s MLBB ecosystem will move under a single framework.

The MLBB Esports SG initiative, led by Pulse Nova Entertainment in partnership with MOONTON Games, will coordinate community events, leagues and tournaments through a unified calendar.

The initiative is designed to provide clarity for organisers and players while creating stronger foundations for the scene.

Jayf Soh, Chief Executive Officer at Pulse Nova Entertainment, commented: “At Pulse Nova Entertainment, our focus is on building an ecosystem where both professional and community teams can thrive together.

“By working closely with MOONTON Games, our partners, and the wider community, we are laying the groundwork for a more unified MLBB ecosystem in Singapore — a vision that will take shape through the MLBB Esports SG initiative in 2026.”

ESI Ranking System
We’ve created a ranking system to help you quickly know how good each gambling platform is. As gamblers ourselves, we know which factors matter most to you, so we follow a best-in-class methodology to test each one with no stone unturned. Once done, we then rank each platform based on the following tiers:
  • A-Tier High-quality sites that deliver a top experience every time. They boast strong performance, nice features, and reliable support, but are just shy of perfection.
  • B-Tier Solid platforms that are worth a spin. They’re safe, fun, and functional, but may be lacking advanced features or have minor drawbacks.
  • S-Tier Reserved for elite operators only. These go well beyond the norm with lucrative bonuses, rewarding promotions, lightning-fast payouts, and a flawless experience overall.
