Indian gamers to compete at the 2022 Asian Games via BGMI

Krafton has announced that Indian gamers will be able to qualify for the official esports program of the 2022 Asian Games via Battlegrounds Mobile India. Set in Hangzhou, China, the iconic sporting event will run from September 10 to September 25, and feature talents from all across Asia.

During the initial announcement, it was unclear as to whether the tournament would be played on PUBG mobile or the Indian version – BGMI. However, Krafton confirmed a few days ago that their new Asia-specific game – ‘PUBG Mobile Asian Games Version’ had been selected for the esports category. This makes it way easier for Indian players to participate since the original PUBG Mobile has been banned here.
