BMIC 2025 Recap: Winners, MVPs, Final Standing, and PMGC 2025 Qualified Teams

DRX from South Korea has been crowned champions of the BGMI International Cup (BMIC) 2025, closing out a weekend of intense action and high drama.

BMIC 2025 Results: DRX Leads the Pack

The tournament, held from October 31 to November 2, brought together some of the best squads from India, Japan, and South Korea. From the very first day, DRX looked unstoppable, and even though they stumbled briefly mid‑tournament, their dominance in the final Miramar matches sealed the deal. With a total of 166 points, they comfortably secured the top spot and walked away with the biggest share of the prize pool.

For Indian fans, there was plenty to cheer about too. True Rippers (TR) put up a strong fight and finished second with 137 points, earning themselves a direct slot in the PMGC 2025 Group Stage. It wasn’t an easy ride, though. CAG Osaka from Japan came within a single point of overtaking them, finishing third with 136 points. That narrow margin kept TR’s PMGC hopes alive and gave us one of the closest finishes of the weekend.

Not every team had a tournament to remember. Established names like K9 Esports and Team Soul showed flashes of brilliance but couldn’t maintain consistency, ending up in eighth and ninth place. Mad Kings from India had a rollercoaster run, despite two match wins, their inconsistency left them in 13th place overall.
