PUBG Mobile is gearing up for another major tournament: the Snapdragon Pro BGMI Mobile Challenge. The finals, taking place from January 31st to February 2nd in India, will see 16 teams vying for the lion's share of a massive INR 1 crore prize pool.
Mobile esports is booming, and PUBG Mobile is a major player. Krafton's own PUBG Mobile Global Open, with its $500,000 prize pool, is a testament to this. But the Snapdragon Pro BGMI Mobile Challenge's sixth season finale in India is another significant event.
From January 31st to February 2nd, at the Noida Indoor Stadium, top Indian players will battle it out for the title of Snapdragon Pro Series BGMI Mobile Challenge Season 6 champions and a substantial portion of the INR 1 crore prize pool.
This tournament has generated significant excitement within the Indian esports community, attracting over 300 registrations for the qualifiers and massive community engagement.
India's Thriving Mobile Esports Scene
India boasts a massive mobile gaming market, but competition is fierce. While domestic developers like SuperGaming (with titles like Indus) are attracting players with their "Made in India" appeal, this tournament highlights the enduring popularity of international titles.
This event underscores India's importance in the global esports landscape. Krafton's continued investment in major tournaments and their reported $10 million investment in grassroots esports demonstrate their commitment to the region.
However, PUBG Mobile faces stiff competition in the mobile shooter market. Check out our list of the top 25 best Android shooters to see who PUBG Mobile is up against.
