Soul's Multiverse Series 2025 title

Overview

In January 2025, Team Soul won the Upthrust Esports Multiverse Series 2025, taking the top prize from the Rs 3,00,000 pool. Gods Reign finished as runners-up and Carnival Gaming placed third, though the final standings were not independently verified. The event was organised by Upthrust Esports, running 6–26 January with 64 teams.

SportsTiger's ESL Snapdragon Pro Series Season 6 preview confirms the win, noting that Soul had recently won the Upthrust Esports Multiverse Series 2025. Soul's roster at the time was Manya (IGL), Saumay, Rony, Nakul and Hunterz, the new addition. The victory came just before the Snapdragon S6 LAN Grand Finals on 31 January to 2 February in Noida, which Soul entered as a favorite.

Not to be confused with the Multiverse Series 2024, won by Revenant Esports ahead of Team Tamilas; a Sportskeeda Multiverse Series finals article from January 2024 belongs to that earlier edition. No dedicated winner article covered the 2025 edition, but Liquipedia now carries a page for it, and its Grand Finals table matches the record here.

The edition's Liquipedia page confirms the Team Soul win, Gods Reign in second place and Manya as MVP, and its Grand Finals table gives the full final order with points for all sixteen teams.

The MVP cheque went to Manya: Liquipedia's award table credits the Team Soul in-game leader with Rs 25,000, and its finals table breaks the winning 229 points into daily splits of 66, 58, 64 and 41. Gods Reign's second place is confirmed by the same table on 202 points, from daily splits of 28, 56, 56 and 62, so the podium this page carried from earlier reports now has a published standings source behind it.
