In a strategic partnership set to revolutionize the mobile entertainment landscape in Sri Lanka, ONMOBilE GLOBAL and Dialog Axiata PLC have joined forces to introduce ONMO, Sri Lanka’s first commercial cloud gaming platform. This landmark collaboration leverages cutting-edge technology to offer Dialog mobile users an immersive, interactive gaming experience that is accessible anytime, anywhere.
A New Era in Mobile Gaming: Enter ONMO
ONMO (www.onmo.dgl.lk) represents a major leap forward in mobile gaming. The platform integrates cloud streaming, social esports, and artificial intelligence (AI) to deliver a seamless gaming experience on Dialog’s widely available 4G network and emerging 5G infrastructure. Gamers can instantly access over 60 titles across popular genres such as action, racing, adventure, puzzles, arcade, and more, with new games added weekly — all without the need for downloads or storage space on their devices.
This subscription-based service is available for just Rs. 399 plus taxes per month, democratizing access to high-quality gaming that was traditionally limited by hardware constraints. The platform’s Vision AI engine curates challenge creation and casual esports on a social platform, encouraging friendly competition with virtual rewards and curated game highlights that enhance engagement.
Driving Innovation Through Partnership
Anthony Rodrigo, Group Chief Innovation Officer and Chief Architect of Dialog Axiata PLC, expressed his excitement about the collaboration: “Dialog is proud to launch the first commercial cloud gaming platform in Sri Lanka with ONMOBilE GLOBAL. Optimized for smartphones and Dialog’s extensive mobile and home broadband networks, ONMO will be a game changer. As 5G rolling out across the country brings low latency and higher speeds, we foresee unlocking the full potential of cloud gaming, offering an unprecedented experience to all Sri Lankans.”
Krish Seshadri, CEO of ONMO, highlighted the platform’s unique social features: “We believe ONMO will emerge as the go-to destination for cloud gaming in the region. Our platform’s blend of curated game moments, social play, and virtual rewards make gaming fun, accessible, and deeply engaging for everyone on Dialog’s network.”
Beyond Gaming: Digital Trust and Security
While ONMO represents the entertainment forefront of the partnership, Dialog Axiata has also positioned itself as a global leader in mobile identity and digital security. Earlier in 2025, Dialog showcased groundbreaking mobile identity solutions at the Mobile World Congress (MWC) in Barcelona, reinforcing its commitment to secure and inclusive digital ecosystems.
Lim Li San, Group Chief Operating Officer of Dialog Axiata, emphasized, “Mobile financial transactions are growing rapidly, and mobile operators now play a pivotal role in protecting consumers from fraud and digital threats. Dialog’s mobile identity solutions, including OTP validation, SIM swap detection, and ownership change monitoring, are critical in safeguarding users and building trust in digital services.”
A Broader Vision: Financial Inclusion and Digital Empowerment
Dialog’s pioneering work in mobile identity, backed by collaborations with national payment networks and regulatory bodies in Sri Lanka, aims to bolster financial inclusion and digital empowerment. The partnership with ONMOBilE GLOBAL aligns with this vision by fostering innovation that enhances connectivity, entertainment, and social engagement for millions of mobile users.
Strategic Impact and Future Growth
Dialog Axiata, with its 20+ million subscribers and wide-reaching network capabilities, combined with ONMOBilE GLOBAL’s innovative cloud gaming technology, is set to transform Sri Lanka’s digital entertainment landscape. The ONMO platform not only introduces cloud gaming at scale but also sets a precedent for integrating AI and social esports into mainstream mobile offerings.
As the 5G rollout gathers pace, the partnership is poised to expand the platform’s capabilities and potentially explore other digital services, including mobile financial products and interactive content, further enhancing user experience and creating new avenues for growth.
Conclusion
The CNMobile Global and Dialog Axiata PLC partnership marks a pivotal moment in mobile technology and digital entertainment in Sri Lanka. By launching ONMO, they have set the stage for a future where cloud gaming and digital content delivery are seamlessly integrated, affordable, and widely accessible. This strategic alliance not only benefits gaming enthusiasts but also strengthens the framework for digital trust and innovation within the rapidly evolving telecom environment.
