A repeat victory for MLBB

MLBB's victory at the Esports Awards 2024 marks the second consecutive year the game has received this prestigious accolade. It joins the ranks of previous winners, such as PUBG: Battlegrounds and Free Fire, which have also been acknowledged for contributing to the esports community.
