This resurgence was underscored by the triumph of Krafton's Battlegrounds Mobile India Pro Series (BMPS), a professional league within BGMI that sees top-tier teams from the Indian gaming realm vying for substantial prize money.

According to a report from InsideSport, invitations for the second season of BMPS are anticipated to extend to top-performing teams from recent BGMI tournaments, alongside the fan-favorite squads.

Uncertainty shrouds the tournament's date and format specifics: asit remains ambiguous if the entire event will adopt an invitational approach or open its doors to all participants. The impending Pro Series promises a showcase of numerous popular, renowned BGMI squads; however, organizers have chosen not to disclose the exact participant count.
But many anticipate that a substantial number — if not all — of top-performing teams from the recently concluded BGIS 2023 competition will secure invitations for this upcoming contest as their skill and success warrant such recognition.
