The online tournament offers a competitive venue for women to demonstrate their skills as individuals rather than as female players. Players in MWI are given the opportunity to take control of their own fates and success, with the hashtag #InControl. MOONTON Games and ONE Esports hope that MWI will provide a forum for women in the Mobile Legends: Bang Bang esports ecosystem to compete and demonstrate their abilities, passion, and achievements.

We are delighted to kick off 2022 with an important event such as MWI, and we couldn’t be more excited to partner with ONE Esports to bring this tournament to life. Mobile Legends: Bang Bang Esports is all-inclusive, with MWI empowering the existing cadre of female Mobile Legends: Bang Bang esports players to be in control of their destiny and highlight their skills. Moreover, we hope that the competition also inspires the next generation of players to follow in their footsteps – regardless of diversity and background. We look forward to celebrating female strength and empowerment with MWI.
