S8UL won “Mobile Organisation of the Year” and PayalGaming got “Streamer of the Year” at MOBIES 2024.
S8UL Esports, India’s leading gaming organization, and popular streamer PayalGaming made history at the MOBIES 2024 awards held in Los Angeles. While S8UL was crowned “Mobile Organisation of the Year,” PayalGaming became the first Indian female gamer to win an international title, bagging the “Streamer of the Year” award.
S8UL’s Global Victory
S8UL Esports outshined gaming giants like LOUD from Brazil, EVOS from Indonesia, and GodLike Esports from India to win the top honor for mobile gaming organizations. This isn’t their first rodeo at MOBIES either—they also won the “Global Impact on Mobile Gaming” award in 2023. Co-founded by gaming legends like 8Bit Thug, Mortal, and Goldy, S8UL has been a trailblazer in India’s gaming scene.
Their win highlights their commitment to creating entertaining content and growing mobile esports not just in India, but globally. Thug summed it up perfectly, calling this achievement a “dream fulfilled” while vowing to keep innovating in the gaming world.
PayalGaming: A Star on the Rise
Payal Dhare, or PayalGaming as fans know her, has inspired gamers across the country with her historic win. She beat nominees like Regaltos (her S8UL teammate), Nobru from Brazil, and RRQ Lemon from Indonesia to claim the prestigious award. With over 4 million subscribers on YouTube and 3.7 million Instagram followers, Payal has built a massive fanbase.
In her acceptance speech, she thanked her family, the S8UL team, and her loyal fans. She called her win a responsibility to inspire more women to step into gaming and content creation. Payal’s achievement is particularly significant as 44% of gamers in India are now women, a number that’s steadily growing.
Setting New Benchmarks for Indian Gaming
S8UL’s success extends beyond MOBIES 2024. They’ve also won the “Content Group of the Year” at the global Esports Awards three times in a row. This year, their Gaming Festival 2023 was nominated for “Live Event of the Year,” showing their ability to bring gaming communities together in innovative ways.
The MOBIES Awards, launched by the team behind the Esports Awards, has quickly become a gold standard in the mobile gaming industry. With categories spanning games, creators, and organizations, the event honors the best in the business.
Well, as the gaming community celebrates, one thing is clear—this is just the beginning for Indian gaming on the global stage. With S8UL leading the charge and creators like Payal inspiring millions, the future looks incredibly bright.
