Cignal Play has officially redefined Filipino storytelling with the launch of its latest digital innovation, Cignal Play Microdrama, offering emotionally-charged, under-five-minute vertical dramas designed for today’s fast-paced, mobile-first world.

Unveiled through an immersive and engaging media conference held last July 16, the launch of Cignal Play Microdrama transported guests into the vivid world of vertical dramas. From LED screen panels displaying dynamic visuals and interactive touchscreens to life-sized story vignettes transforming the venue into a living, breathing universe of microdrama, guests were not just introduced to content – they lived it.

More than just a format, Cignal Play Microdrama is the platform’s mission in action: to make emotionally engaging stories more accessible and unforgettable. Each microdrama reflects the heart of the Filipino experience – told with authenticity, heart, and humor. Big emotions, big stories, big drama, all in a small package. Whether you’re on a quick break or a late-night binge, there’s a microdrama for you.

“We believe that storytelling has the power to connect, inspire and transform. With Cignal Play Microdrama, we’re bringing a new dimension to Filipino content that is short, impactful, relatable,” shared MediaQuest & Cignal President & CEO Jane J. Basas.

Currently streaming on the Cignal Play app are four must-watch micro-series, each crafted to match the different preferences of Filipino viewers:

• I See You – A chilling thriller starring Dimples Romana as a powerful businesswoman whose seemingly perfect life is shattered when she goes blind yet clearly sees the betrayal of the people closest to her. This microdrama also stars Joem Bascon, Cedrick Juan, Pearl Gonzales, Glenda Garcia, and Zion Cruz.

• My Father’s Last Wish – A tear-jerking family drama featuring Dylan Menor as a son fulfilling his father’s dying request. A touching tale of forgiveness and reconnection also featuring the performances of Johnny Revilla, Gerald Madrid, Alex Medina, and Dawn Chang.

• 3 Queens and a Baby – A laugh-out-loud comedy series starring Christian Bables as part of a fabulous drag trio navigating love, chaos, and an unexpected baby. Joining Christian in this hilarious mini-series are TJ Valderrama, Iyah Mina, Daniela Stranner, Donna Cariaga, Christian Vasquez, and Iven Lim.

• Baker’s Heart – A romantic tale fresh from the oven. Set in a neighborhood panaderia, this series serves sweetness and second chances.

Meanwhile, there is one more upcoming title to be launched ahead of more microdrama series set to stream in the next few months:

• A Cure Called Love – A kilig-filled romance that asks: Can love really heal all wounds? This microdrama also stars Dylan Menor, Micah Santos, Gelli De Belen, Pinky Amador, and Jeff Tam.

Cignal Play Microdrama also streams vertical dramas from its partner, Dashflix, a mobile-first short-form video producer known for its focus on bite-sized, high-quality content designed for viewers who are always on the go.

“We’re proud to offer this innovative format that delivers authentic stories that resonate with our Filipino audiences,” added Cignal Chief Revenue Officer Gerard Milan. “We’re starting with I See You, My Father’s Last Wish, 3 Queens and a Baby, Baker’s Heart, and coming this July, A Cure Called Love. We have more Originals in the pipeline in the months ahead. Our goal is to make premium storytelling accessible anytime, anywhere. One minute you’re laughing, the next you’re crying – that’s the Cignal Play Microdrama magic.”

The first five episodes of every title are free to stream, with full access to the rest of the episodes available for only ₱20 per day, Cignal Play Microdrama remains one of the most affordable streaming offerings in the market today.
