Chinese electronics brand Infinix has announced the second season of the GT PowerPlay Esports Tournament, an open-entry BGMI (Battlegrounds Mobile India) competition. It has a Rs 1 lakh prize pool and participation from over 1,000 teams.
This tournament received a strong response in its first season, with over 5000 participants and gaming influencers like “Smitha Plays,” “Gigga,” “Lapid,” “Mastizone Gaming,” and “Mayur Gaming.”
The season two will be managed by Glazer Games, who will oversee logistics and fair play.
Infinix India CEO Anish Kapoor said, “Mobile gaming is at the heart of digital entertainment today, and Infinix is proud to support aspiring gamers with cutting-edge technology and opportunities that bring them closer to their dreams. With a robust gaming ecosystem at Infinix India—including devices like the GT 20 Pro and GT Book—and initiatives like GT PowerPlay, we’re strengthening our commitment to India’s gaming community by providing a platform for emerging players to showcase their skills, compete at the highest level, and engage with the growing esports ecosystem.”
