The event achieved over 73,000 peak concurrent viewers, representing a 29% increase from the previous year's ceremony and ranking among the five most popular award-related broadcasts of 2025. Founded and hosted by prominent esports personalities Eefje 'Sjokz' Depoortere and Marc 'Caedrel' Lamont, the ceremony honored excellence across multiple categories. Gen.G's Chovy won Player of the Year, while Christian 'IWDominate' Rivera claimed Esports Content Creator of the Year.

The event was primarily livestreamed on Caedrel's Twitch channel, with 16 additional co-streamers providing coverage, significantly expanding the audience reach compared to the inaugural 2024 ceremony. The viewership peaked when Caedrel shaved his head live on stage after losing a wager to T1's Doran regarding the 2025 World Championship outcome.
