2023 Battlegrounds Mobile Series Tournaments

Battlegrounds Mobile India Series 2023, often known as BGIS 2023, is the second instalment of BGIS. The prize pool for the competition, which is run by KRAFTON, is $2,000,000 INR.

The Indian version of PUBG Mobile, Battlegrounds Mobile India (BGMI; formerly PUBG Mobile India), is available only to gamers in India. A serious claim regarding India’s data storage policy led to the creation of the games specifically for Indian players. It is a multiplayer online battle royale game created and distributed by Krafton. The video game was first made available on July 2, 2021, for Android devices and August 18, 2021, for iOS devices. BGMI had more than 130 million downloads as of July 2022 on Google Play.

On July 28, 2022, the Indian government outlawed the game in their country. A statement from Krafton claims that the prohibition was lifted on May 26, 2023.
