China is the biggest Esports Market
Niko partners have released a new report regarding the performance of eSports in Asia, the Middle East, and North Africa region (MENA). In this report, they have stated that China is the biggest market for eSports having a market share of 34.2%. They generated total revenue of $445 Million last year which is more than 60% of the total revenue of Asia and MENA. On the other hand, India's eSports industry has generated only $22.3 Million in the year 2022, which is almost nowhere as compared to the Chinese market. The Chinese eSports market is very vast having a massive size of 40 crores gamers who are actively participating in various tournaments. The Indian eSports market has a lot of potential which is yet to be explored. Valorant, Dota 2, and League of Legends were the most popular pc games in the esports genre. PUBG Mobile, Mobile Legends BB, and League of Legends Wild Drift mobile games have dominated the eSports market.

Super Gaming has announced its Indus Insider Program
The developers of Indus Battle Royale have announced its Insider Program which is a content creation program for creators. Indus has partnered with YouTube for creating content around the game from selected creators. It is a golden opportunity for all those aspiring YouTube creators as they will also be given support from professionals on how to grow their reach. The top-performing creators will also get insights from the developers on how to make good quality content. There are some mandatory conditions such as making a particular number of videos during a period (which obviously kills creativity if the number is high). However, subscriber count is not a criterion for selection which means new creators also have a chance to showcase their skills. Including the insights on the game, creators will also be given creator workshops, invite-only events, and closed beta access to the game. Interested creators can apply for the Indus Insider program here.
PUBG PC Gets New Clan Update
PUBG PC in its recent update has included clans in their gameplay. Now gamers can create clans that can have up to 100 clan members.
