The YGG Play Summit 2025 opened with a strong mix of game reveals, esports highlights, and Web3 ecosystem updates. Across the Arena and the City of Play districts, developers, players, and creators gathered to showcase the next wave of competitive gaming and player-driven innovation.
Moku’s Grand Arena Preseason Goes Live
Moku kicked off its Grand Arena Preseason during the Summit. The preseason begins with Moki Manager, a management sim for Moki holders. Players can jump into Moki Mayhem, a team-based battler where they fine-tune builds, earn performance points, and climb the leaderboard.
All preseason stats will carry over to Season 1, which launches with a US$1 million prize pool. It sets the tone for Moku’s goal of creating a 24/7 AI battler that rewards strategy, planning, and community engagement.
Spekter Games Introduces the Spekter Hub
Spekter Games unveiled Spekter Hub, a new platform that connects all Spekter titles under one Web3 incentive ecosystem. Players can complete missions, participate in events, and earn Spark, the platform’s loyalty currency.
Top players can also earn Spek Vaults, digital collectibles stored on TON and Soneium. These items unlock multipliers, exclusive cosmetics, premium bonuses, and early access to future titles. Spekter Hub runs its rewards onchain in the background while keeping the player experience simple and free of onboarding barriers.
YGG Esports’ Tyler Wins the First Might and Magic: Fates Tournament
The Arena stage hosted the first ever tournament for Might and Magic: Fates, Ubisoft’s new digital TCG. Eight invited competitors battled it out, including Hearthstone pros, YGG Esports players, and well-known creators.
YGG Esports’ Tyler claimed the title, defeating creator Archer Perez in a best-of-three finals. With nine years of TCG experience and over US$100,000 in Hearthstone tournament winnings, Tyler showcased sharp decision-making and strong deck building. Many participants played Haven decks for their defensive tools and reliable spells.
The event featured a US$5,000 prize pool, with Tyler taking home US$1,500. Ubisoft’s team emphasized that this tournament is an early step in their long-term competitive roadmap for Fates.
