The inaugural BATTLEGROUNDS MOBILE INTERNATIONAL CUP (BMIC 2025) has officially begun at the Yashobhoomi Convention Centre, New Delhi, marking a historic turning point for Indian Esports. With a substantial prize pool of ₹1 Crore, the tournament pits India’s top BGMI teams against fierce international competition from South Korea and Japan, showcasing India's rapid rise as a global gaming hub. KRAFTON India CEO Sean Hyunil Sohn has publicly reaffirmed the company’s "deep commitment" to the Indian Esports scene, promising "bigger and better platforms in the coming years." Day 1 delivered a thrilling spectacle, initially characterized by strong Indian team performance, securing 4 out of 6 match wins and leading to an international caster's praise for India's "insane firepower." However, the Korean squad DRX mounted a dominant comeback, clinching 2 consecutive chicken dinners and finishing at the top of the leaderboard with 74 total points. India's NEBULE ESPORTS (NBE) and TEAM SOUL followed closely at second (51 points) and third (46 points), respectively, setting the stage for a dramatic final two days. DRX IGL QXZ was highlighted as a top performer, ranking in the Top 5 Best IGLs and MVP of the Tournament rankings. The tournament also featured a fierce rivalry drop-clash between PMGC-qualified teams Team Warangutan and D+ (Dplus), which saw Warangutan initially dominate one match before D+ retaliated with two consecutive wins. Meanwhile, the visa issues affecting top organizations S8UL and Team Goldleg for an upcoming COD Mobile tournament remain a critical community-supported topic, with players confirming contact with the PMO via email and viral Twitter posts. Beyond the BMIC clashes, the local scene gears up for the Red Bull Tetris Event, whose national finals (November 1st and 2nd) at Dreamhack Hyderabad will select India’s representative for the World Final in Dubai, played live with over 2,000 drones. Fans can follow all the BMIC action, featuring multiple Indian language streams (English, Hindi, Telugu, Kannada, Marathi, Tamil, Mizo, and Malayalam), live on the KRAFTON India Esports YouTube channel. The event continues to underscore the community's call for unity and support for all Indian teams on the international stage.
