Introduction

KRAFTON India, the powerhouse behind BGMI, has recently announced its invitation for bids for a franchise-based esports league on 24th June 2025 on their official website KRAFTON INDIA. It’s like IPL but for gaming. This isn’t just another tournament but a chance to own a team, build a brand, and dominate India’s booming esports scene. BGMI leads the charge, but this league could grow to include more epic titles. According to KRAFTON’s official announcement, the bidding is for a new, franchise-based esports initiative in India. While BGMI is a major focus because of its huge fan base in India, the initiative is broader than just BGMI.
Who Can Bid in KRAFTON’s Franchise Esports League?

It’s open to more than one can think. KRAFTON’s new franchise esports league isn’t just for big-name companies. It’s a wide-open chance for anyone with passion, vision, or a foot in the gaming world to own a piece of India’s esports future. Krafton mentioned who can bid, such as esports orgs, which are obvious contenders as they’ve already built teams, competed, and know the grind, brands, and businesses. Celebs and influencers, BGMI pros and streamers, investors and entrepreneurs, and even newcomers with vision are welcome. In short, if a person or a team is part of the gaming culture in any way, this bid is for them.
How Does It Work?
Here’s how it works: by July 4, 2025, anyone, like esports fans, brands, celebs, or investors, can email KRAFTON an Expression of Interest (EOI). Once approved, one gets a detailed plan and bidding guide. Win the bid, and they will own a permanent team, compete in epic BGMI-focused tournaments or other tournaments hosted by Krafton, and earn big from sponsors, merch, and media.
How The New Bidding System Can Change The Whole Ecosystem Of Indian Esports

The new bidding system by KRAFTON INDIA is set to change Indian gaming forever by July 4, 2025. Anyone can bid, just like gamers, brands, or celebrities, and they can own a team. This isn’t just a tournament; it’s a permanent league where BGMI pros get steady jobs, fans cheer for their favorite teams, and owners earn from sponsorships and merch. With India’s esports market hitting ₹1,100 crore soon, as mentioned by Krafton India in a recent post, this league will open doors for new talent, boost fan excitement, and maybe even take BGMI global.
