The renowned creators from these two Esports organizations will curate exciting content for their fanbases through a combined server -Soul City
S8UL, one of the country’s leading Esports organizations has joined hands with Velocity Gaming to form an alliance and create a star-studded roleplay server in GTA V that features India’s biggest creators from the two respective squads.
This partnership comes as a boost to India’s GTA community, as it is a commitment from two of the country’s top Esports organizations towards contributing to the growth of the game. This association will be a significant step which enhances the GTA RP scene in the country.
“We are extremely delighted to officially join forces with Velocity Gaming and kickstart 2023 with a bang. With both organizations boasting some of the country’s top creators this is undoubtedly a remarkable opportunity to produce jaw-dropping content for the fans to engage and excite. Everyone is now looking forward to this association and recording some interesting content together,” said Lokesh Jain, Co-founder of S8UL who were recently awarded the ‘Content Group Of The Year’ at the coveted ‘Esports Awards 2022’ last month.
Velocity Gaming is home to some of India’s noteworthy creators such as Rakazone, Tbone, Fa2, Pinkcess, Eclairs, and many more. What is interesting is, GTA V roleplay mod allows players to take shape of non-playing characters (NPC) such as a policeman, chauffeur, singer, gangster, etc with plenty of gameplay opportunities through numerous tasks and responsibilities. It also allows them to interact with other creators from a more engrossing in-game match on the server.
“We have been enjoying our journey with GTA & this is yet another step from us to amp up our game. I am personally super excited about how this is going to unfold. Let’s do this, SoulCity is all set to make some amazing content and entertain our audience in more ways than ever before” said Manoj Kashyap, Founder of Velocity Gaming.
This unique partnership will enthrall fans as they will get to see their favorite creators play in their own world with their imaginative set of rules and themes where every character will have its own story and goals to accomplish.

DigiPlus Officially Incorporates Singapore Hub to Power Global Growth

DigiPlus Interactive Corp, the Philippines’ leading digital entertainment company, has taken a step forward in its international growth strategy with the official incorporation of DigiPlus Global Pte Ltd in Singapore.
Fully owned by Diginvest Holdings Inc, a 100% subsidiary of DigiPlus Interactive, the newly established DigiPlus Global will serve as the company’s international hub—driving its global ambitions through strategic partnerships, talent acquisition and corporate support. The entity is formally registered under Singapore’s business activity classification for head and regional offices, acting as DigiPlus Interactive’s centralised administrative and management office.
While the Singapore entity will focus solely on regional support services, it will not operate any gaming platforms in Singapore, in full respect of the country’s regulatory framework.
“This is not just an expansion; it’s a foundational step in our growth strategy. By anchoring our international presence in Singapore—one of the world’s most advanced business ecosystems—we are accelerating DigiPlus’ transformation into a globally recognized force in digital entertainment,” said DigiPlus Interactive Chairman Eusebio Tanco.
The move enables DigiPlus to deepen its access to global expertise, strengthen cross-border collaboration and build high-value relationships in key markets. It will also accelerate the company’s ability to pioneer the next wave of digital entertainment innovations as it continues to grow its digital platforms—BingoPlus, ArenaPlus and GameZone—which already dominate the Philippine market.

Macau Govt Appoints Ng Wai Han as Director of DICJ

The Macau Government has appointed Ng Wai Han, who was serving as Director of the Public Administration and Civil Service Bureau (SAFP), as Director of the Macau Gaming Inspection and Coordination Bureau (DICJ).
Ng had served as head of the Public Administration Bureau since September 2023, following a three-year stint as Deputy Director.
Between 1999 and 2020, Ng rose through the ranks of the Labour Affairs Bureau (DSAL) to the position of Deputy Director.
With this appointment, the reshuffling of DICJ’s leadership team is now complete. The position of Director had remained vacant since 20 December last year, when her predecessor, Adriano Marques Ho, became Director General of the Macau Customs. Deputy Director Lio Chi Chong had been serving as Acting Director in the interim.
Lei Seak Chio, who, like Ng, previously worked at DSAL, was appointed one of DICJ’s Deputy Directors in February, replacing Peter Chui.
