Infinix Campus Cup 2025: Unleashing Southeast Asia’s Esports Future
A New Era of Student Esports Begins
Manila, Philippines — The Infinix Campus Cup (XCC) 2025 has arrived, marking a pivotal moment in student esports across Southeast Asia. In partnership with Mobile Legends: Bang Bang (MLBB), Infinix is stepping up its commitment to nurturing young gaming talent, transforming what was once the Infinix University League (XUL) into something even bigger, bolder, and more competitive.
Running from May to July 2025, XCC will provide a stage for student gamers from Indonesia, Cambodia, Malaysia, Myanmar, and the Philippines to test their skills, compete against the best, and carve their path toward esports stardom. At the heart of the competition is the Infinix GT series, a cutting-edge gaming smartphone designed to deliver high-performance gameplay—giving every participant the edge they need to rise above the competition.
“XCC was born from our belief that the future of esports starts on campus,” said Tony Zhao, General Manager of Infinix. “We are here to empower young players, bridge the gap between grassroots gaming and the professional scene, and create a platform where esports legends are made.”
Bringing Southeast Asia’s Best Student Gamers Together
After making a huge impact on Philippine esports in previous editions, XCC 2025 is expanding beyond national borders. This year, the Philippines will take center stage as the host nation, bringing together the region’s top student players for an intense battle that will culminate in the Regional Grand Finals in Manila.
The competition will be centered around Mobile Legends: Bang Bang, Southeast Asia’s most played mobile MOBA. MLBB’s fast-paced, team-focused gameplay makes it the perfect battleground for aspiring esports professionals, giving them a chance to prove their strategy, teamwork, and raw skill at the highest level.
Beyond a tournament, XCC 2025 serves as a launchpad for student gamers to showcase their abilities, gain exposure, and take their first steps into the professional esports scene. With Infinix providing the hardware and MLBB offering the arena, this is a golden opportunity for rising stars to make a name for themselves.
