Indian pro players and esports professionals believe that esports may not be getting the recognition it deserves in India.
Esports has been around for a while now, but it was only in the past few years that it has gained prominence and witnessed a boom in India. According to a report by INC42, the esports audience in India has witnessed a massive growth from 6 million to an estimated 17 million by the end of 2020.
The yearly growth in all aspects, including the audience, players, and prize pool has propelled many exemplary gamers to take up the lucrative and growing career option. Some even regard it to be in line with a mainstream career option.
