Infinix, the trendy smartphone brand, has announced a multi-year partnership with Moonton Games as the official gaming smartphone for the popular MOBA game Mobile Legends: Bang Bang (MLBB).
The unveiling of the collaboration also led to the announcement of Infinix’s sponsorship of a series of professional tournaments across five Southeast Asian countries, including the Philippines, kicking off on February 28, 2025. The series of tournaments will reaffirm Infinix’s dedication to Moonton Games, placing the brand at the heart of the MLBB esports ecosystem.
Infinix’s premium gaming smartphone, the GT series, plays a vital role in enhancing player performance and reinforcing the brand’s identity as a key player in the mobile gaming community.
Combining Infinix’s GT Series and gaming greatness
MLBB is a mobile gaming powerhouse in Southeast Asia, boasting over 100 million active players. So, the partnership between Infinix and Moonton will unite aspiring gamers and seasoned professionals through sponsorships in major tournaments. These include the MLBB Professional League (MPL) in Cambodia, Malaysia, and the Philippines, the MLBB Development League (MDL) in Indonesia, and the new MLBB Super League (MSL) in Myanmar.
The Infinix GT 20 Pro will serve as the official tournament device for the first stage of this year’s competitions, which will then be upgraded to the Infinix GT30 Pro after its regional launch in the latter half of the year.
The GT Series’ high-end features, including ultra-fast processing speed powered by high-performance processors, fluid visuals on high refresh-rate screens, and long battery life, will surely meet the higher performance demands and provide players with the best gaming experience.
To ensure that these devices meet the high standards of official tournaments, they undergo rigorous testing, including stress tests, tournament simulations, actual player usage, and adaptation to the on-site environment.
Nurturing a dynamic and connected gaming community
While the partnership between Infinix and Moonton has more to do with the financials for both companies, the mobile phone brand says they are also committed to building a vibrant mobile gaming community.
With this in mind, Infinix plans to host several online and in-person events, including fan club tournaments, community booths, meet-and-greet sessions with professional players and esports content creators, gaming masterclasses, and exclusive giveaways.
Raising the Prestige of MLBB Tournaments
“Infinix has democratized gaming by making cutting-edge gaming accessible to the next generation of mobile gamers,” said MOONTON Games Head of Regional Esports Sales, Adrian Cher.
As the official sponsor and gaming partner for several tournaments, Infinix aims to raise the bar of excitement and competitiveness. Among the five tournaments, excluding the MDL Indonesia, the other four champions secured coveted spots in major MOONTON-sanction events, including the MSC and M-Series.
“Through this partnership, we aim to equip more players with Infinix’s high-performance devices, enhancing their gameplay and driving the continued evolution of the esports industry,” said Infinix CEO Tony Zhao.
Infinix x MPL – PH
Infinix has been a proud partner of MPL Philippines since MPL S11, providing top-tier gaming smartphones for the most passionate MLBB community. Now, they’re “doubling down” on their ‘Lakas sa Laro’ commitment as the official tournament sponsor by equipping players with the Infinix GT 20 Pro.
“At Infinix, we’re dedicated to giving gamers the tools they need to perform at their best. Our partnership with MPL-PH reinforces our commitment to the esports community, and we’re excited to bring even more thrilling experiences to MLBB fans,” said Harry Leonardo, Esports and Gaming Strategy Manager, Infinix Philippines.
