Ghana’s Esports sensation, Aura233, under the banner of PlayProvince Esports, has once again surged to the top of the African Call of Duty Mobile scene. After claiming the championship title in last year’s Carry1st Call of Duty Mobile Qualifiers, the defending champions have returned to the finals this year, setting the stage for a potential historic back-to-back win.
Aura233’s qualification last year didn’t just earn them continental recognition—it also caught the attention of major tech industry players. Samsung Ghana proudly partnered with the team, supporting them with its flagship Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra devices to enhance their competitive edge. The support played a pivotal role in powering the team through regional events and intense scrimmages.
This year, Aura233 is aiming even higher. A win in the upcoming finals would see them represent Ghana in Nigeria for the African Regional Finals, a crucial qualifier toward the Call of Duty World Championship. The global tournament boasts a grand prize pool of up to $1 million, offering not just prestige, but life-changing rewards for any team that conquers the international stage.
Daniel Dwuma Badu aka RUIN, team captain and esports athlete at Aura233, shared his excitement:
“We’ve worked incredibly hard to put Ghana on the esports map. Last year was the breakthrough, and this year, we’re writing the legacy. With strong backing from partners like Samsung Ghana and the PlayProvince family, we’re more prepared than ever.”
This achievement marks a milestone not only for Aura233, but also for Ghana’s rapidly evolving esports ecosystem, which continues to grow in talent, media visibility, and international relevance. As PlayProvince leads the charge in nurturing and elevating youth through gaming, Aura233 stands as a beacon of what’s possible when passion meets opportunity.
The Carry1st Call of Duty finals are set for early July, and with Ghana’s pride at stake, fans across the nation will be rallying behind Aura233 as they fight to bring home another title — and a ticket to the world stage.
