As we know, the Government of India banned Pubg in India along with other apps in the 69A Regulation. Because Pubg global can share data with the Chinese government. And we know that China wants to misuse these figures and did it many times. in Pubg mobile policy, we can see that they can share data with the Government of the Republic of China anytime when they will ask. The Republic of China did not want anyone to share Chinese people’s data with other countries that’s why they banned all social sites and Pubg. Then Tencent partnered with Krafton and created a new game; called Game of Peace(Pubg China) for china. Therefore, basically the Chinese government can use the data of people from other countries through Pubg and other Chinese apps but no one can access the data of Chinese people.

Will pubg (bgmi) unban soon?
Actually, we can’t say anything yet on Unban. But yes, Pubg Mobile Korean Official company gave a statement on its Instagram account that they break the partnership with Tencent for India. Now, Pubgm Korea will have official rights to launch the game in India and collect data from Indian players.
But govt banned the new game BGMI India as well because one Chinese company has some stack in its parent company. Hopefully now Krafton will launch the Indian game without a partnership with a Chinese company.
We can see that the esports industry has huge potential. And in the future, Indian viewership of esports will increase rapidly.
Esports are on the rise worldwide and the rise has been exponential over the past few years. Let me start with an example of one particular game that I have been playing so many times now, Pubg Mobile (PlayerUnknown Battlefield). I started playing Pubg Mobile back in 2018 end, right from the last year of college. I have followed many international tournaments and watched all the big teams play.
To name a few, big tournaments like Pubg Mobile Club Open, Pubg Mobile World League, Pubg Mobile PL, and many tournaments of pubg mobile and the prize money used to be around $850K and $1 million/country in a single tournament.
Esport Set-Up
In 2020, Pubg Mobile Officials announced the launch of a new version(New Era) for Pubg Mobile named “PubgMobile 1.0 new era” and it will be the turning point in history. And now it will be decided that all the tournaments will now have Pubg Mobile New Era. In 2020, the number of tournaments and Prize money was on the rise.
Back then participation is good but still, it has some drawbacks like some teams used hacks at the starting level and pubg failed to stop them yet. They wasted many slots of good teams. There were only a few teams from Europe and South Asia. But now the participation has increased drastically with huge participation from North America and South America with European and American teams still occupying the Top 20 positions.
Now let’s have a look at the prize money of the few tournaments held so far in 2020:
PMWL 2020 SEASON ZERO EAST – $850k million PMWL 2020 SEASON ZERO WEST – $850k million PMCO 2020 – $1 million/country PMPL SOUTH ASIA – $ 200k and the list goes on…….
and the tournament arenas now look like this:
PUBG Mobile League Arena
this
Pubg Mobile Arena
and this
Esports Arena
There are several organizations coming up that function just like sporting clubs in any other sports (such as football clubs in football). They have contracts with players, they sign and release players and sometimes they sign and relieve the whole team (it’s a team of 5-6 that plays), they have now coached to form strategies and a group of analysts working behind them to prepare the players for big matches. and mentally motivate them.

The salaries of these teams are now offering is more than what big firms and MNCs can offer. Last year 5 players of TSM (Team Solo Mid) decided to leave TSM and form their organization. TSM quickly sent out the notice that they needed a new team and the salary offered would be $10,000 per month plus tournament win bonuses. And This happened in the counter strike, but there are other games as well such as DOTA, Pubg, clash of clans, FIFA, LEAGUE OF LEGENDS, counter strike, etc where the prize money is even more massive.
Now let’s have a look at the prize money of the few tournaments held so far :
Counter-Strike- $10.22 Million
Fortnite – approx $7 Million
DOTA2- $ 5.22 Million
Rainbow 6- Approx $4 Millionand so on…….
And now let’s compare the prize pool of esports with traditional sports:
After the ban on Chinese esports games (Pubg Mobile in 2021, Free Fire & BGMI in 2022) the growth of the esports industry in India is increasing slowly. But hopefully, soon we can see a new BGMI game for the Indian market only without any interface from a Chinese company.
The esports industry has grown faster than anyone could have predicted, the future is bright and so my friends –
THE GAME HAS JUST BEGUN.
