DGL - Digital Gaming League
National Gaming & Esports Community Platform
DESCRIPTION
Digital Gaming League (DGL) is a national gaming and esports platform created to nurture Sri Lanka’s competitive gaming ecosystem, with a strong focus on mobile-first access, community building, and structured tournaments.
The platform enables gamers to discover tournaments, register teams, track schedules, earn points, and participate in a continuous competitive ecosystem rather than one-off events. DGL was designed as a long-running program, not a campaign, supporting casual players, semi-professional teams, and emerging esports talent across the country.
Originally launched as Dialog Gaming League, the platform later evolved into Digital Gaming League to reflect its broader scope beyond telco-led activations, positioning it as Sri Lanka’s first sustained gaming community program.
CONTEXT
Between 2017 and 2019, Sri Lanka saw a rapid rise in mobile gaming adoption, driven by affordable smartphones, competitive data plans, and growing interest in games like PUBG Mobile, Free Fire, and Call of Duty Mobile.

Despite this growth, the ecosystem lacked:
- A centralized competitive platform
- Consistent tournament structures
- Player progression, rankings, or recognition
- A mobile-optimized experience built for local constraints
Most gaming events were fragmented, short-lived, or limited to physical expos. DGL was conceived to formalize gaming into a continuous, digital-first competitive ecosystem accessible from anywhere in the country.
