Manila, Philippines – September 2025 – A new chapter in Philippine esports is about to unfold with the staging of the first-ever Call of Duty: Mobile (CODM) Battle Royale LAN Tournament in the country, happening on September 28, 2025, 2:00 PM at Winford Manila, Santa Cruz, Manila.

Dubbed the CODM: Dawn of Valor LAN Tournament, this historic event is organized and financed through the collective efforts of various CODM esports owners, pooling resources to create a landmark competition that elevates the stature of Battle Royale gaming in the Philippines.

The tournament is expected to bring electrifying energy to the gaming community, with some of the country’s top live streamers, influencers, and pro players taking part.

Powerhouse Teams and Influencers

The competition will showcase powerhouse squads and names that have shaped the CODM landscape in the Philippines:

  • 4Kings (4K) – the most popular and influential brand in Philippine esports, transformed into a powerhouse under the leadership of Synth, alongside CODM community icons Tokyo Gaming and Holy Father. With millions of followers and massive reach, 4Kings not only dominate the competitive scene but have also become sought-after brand ambassadors for other top games, proving their influence extends well beyond CODM Battle Royale.
  • Blackfyre – home of the OG players, highly respected for their legacy, grit, and long-standing presence in competitive play, serving as one of the pillars of the CODM community.
  • Leap Esports – a widely popular and formidable organization, bannered by Donnn, one of the most celebrated CODM players today.

A United Effort

“This event is more than just a tournament—it’s a celebration of the thriving CODM community in the Philippines,” said Jace Ortiz, owner of Blackfyre. “By working together as esports owners and uniting some of the biggest names in streaming and competitive play, we are not only raising the bar for Battle Royale but also showing the strength and passion of Filipino gamers.”

Bakbakan Organizing Management and TournaBus, led by Cheng and Daddy Monching, bring their extensive experience in managing scrims and tournaments to ensure smooth and professional event execution.

The Tournament

A total of 25 teams will battle it out in the finals, competing for the ultimate glory and a ₱100,000 prize pool. This competition will not only showcase the highest level of CODM Battle Royale gameplay but also cement the Philippines as a rising hub for competitive mobile esports.
