Superstar Acts Join Guild Esports’ First Online Gaming Festival

Super Stream Sunday is Guild’s mega 5 hour live event featuring some of the most exciting names in the gaming and entertainment industries
Catch Tom Grennan, Conor Maynard, Talia Mar, Yizzy and a stellar line-up of names on March 28th 5-10pm GMT on Twitch & YouTube
Guild Esports, the global esports organisation co-owned by David Beckham, is proud to announce an elite line-up to join its first Super Stream Sunday – taking place on the 28th March, 5-10PM GMT on Twitch & YouTube. Super Stream Sunday is Guild’s first online gaming festival – where headline names will compete alongside its roster of professional gamers and content creators.
Topping the lineup is Tom Grennan & Conor Maynard. Tom is fresh off the back of a first number one album, two singles in the UK top-40, and a string of sellout shows announced across the UK. Conor is a world-renowned performer, most recently seeing rapid success on YouTube and being granted a Diamond play button for 10 million subscribers.
The big question is – can they handle the heat of competitive gaming?
Self-confessed FIFA fanatic Tom will not only be testing his skills alongside the best in the business in Guild’s professional athlete Niklas Raseck, but he’ll also be competing with prince of grime Yizzy. Yizzy continued his rapid rise to fame last year with his aptly titled track ‘Grime’ with the critically acclaimed JME, and also made a track for Guild to mark the launch of its first lifestyle apparel line.
Meanwhile Conor will be battling it out for Rocket League bragging rights alongside leading streamers and entertainers Randolph & Nathan Dawe. Rapper Randolph is known for his passion for all things gaming, while Nathan most recently collaborated with Little Mix on the smash hit ‘No Time For Tears’.
They’re joined by the multi-talented Talia Mar, who will take part in the variety gaming segment of the show. An established singer, YouTuber & content creator, and rising streamer, few have seen the range of successes that Talia has. Alongside her will be rapper and cultural icon Big Zuu, who has recently taken his talents outside of the studio and into the kitchen with his first book launch and the hugely popular TV program ‘Big Zuu’s Big Eats’.
Hosting the variety session will be Guild’s very own Gee Nelly, leading streamer and content creator and founder of the Nelly Nation. Gee is best known for her variety gaming streams and interaction with her loyal followers. Also taking part in the session will be a host of other creators, including Harrie, SnowMixy & Niki Nihachu. Niki’s success in the scene has seen her gather nearly 1.5 million followers on Twitch.
Meeting them there will be leading entertainer and streamer Harry Pinero. Harry will have to keep up with Guild’s recently crowned #1 EU Fortnite Team as he tests his shooting aim in the Fortnite section.
The stream will be broken into hour long segments, each with a different host and guests.
Yizzy commented, “No one is doing things like Guild at the moment. They recognise how culture crosses over and comes together – from gaming, to music, to entertainment. I’m looking forward to testing my gaming skills against some of the best players in esports, and linking up with other talented performers”.
Danny Lopez, Director of Brand & Content at Guild added: “It’s been a dream of mine to create a festival style extravaganza that showcases all of Guild’s talent, and merges all aspects of youth culture; music, sport & entertainment. Super Stream Sunday brings that dream to life, enabling us to share entertainment with people from all different backgrounds & interests through the power of gaming”.
With something for everyone, Super Stream Sunday is an event you won’t want to miss! Come and drop in from 5pm GMT on March 28th at twitch.tv/guildesports

The prestigious 2025 PUBG MOBILE World Cup (PMWC) is shifting into high-gear as the pivotal Survival Stage has concluded after two days of high-stakes plays and fierce competition which saw Horaa Esports take pole position. In total, eight elite teams have emerged victorious, earning a spot to compete in the 2025 PMWC Grand Finals, where they’ll be reunited with the eight teams that came out on top during the Group Stage last weekend. Only one team will take home the lion’s share of the $3 million prize pool, and the crown position as the 2025 PMWC Champion, as part of the Esports World Cup in Riyadh.
Over the course of three action-packed days, the Survival Stage delivered intense battles in 12 adrenaline-fueled matches, as 16 teams fought for the final eight coveted slots in the Grand Finals. Early momentum was set by Fire Flux Esports on day one, consistently securing top finishes, while POWR Esports made a strong impact on day two with aggressive plays and smart rotations. Throughout the stage, teams such as Regnum Carya and eArena demonstrated their resilience and adaptability, skillfully navigating high-pressure situations to place in the Top 3 for four of their matches. The MEA region also proved itself a powerhouse, with both Team Falcons and POWR Esports advancing to the Grand Finals. Surprisingly, last year’s reigning champions, Alpha7 Esports, were eliminated in this Survival Stage, ending their run in the tournament after a series of hard-fought matches, guaranteeing a new team will take the throne.
Showcasing their strategic brilliance, Horaa Esports earned an impressive 108 points, marking them as the top dogs of the Survival Stage. Along with seven other finalists from this stage, they have secured their spot in the Grand Finals.
The 16 top-performing teams to compete in the Grand Finals from tomorrow include:

With the placements confirmed and schedule locked in, the 2025 PMWC Grand Finals weekend is set to be an exceptional display of top PUBG MOBILE Esports talent. As the second edition of the PUBG MOBILE World Cup (PMWC), and part of the Esports World Cup, these dedicated teams will be doubling down on their competitive edge, leaving everything on the battleground as they fight for the crown, and the lion’s share of the $3 million prize pool.
