Skyesports has been one of the top original IP organizers for BGMI ever since it was released in June 2021. The Skyesports Championship 4.0 – BGMI, one of the first-ever major tournaments for the game that happened in September 2021, achieved a record-breaking peak viewership of 221,000. Additionally, the Skyesports Grand Slam in early 2022 also recorded terrific viewership numbers with a peak of more than 150,000 viewers.
The SCS BGMI will be the first of many online and offline esports tournaments by Skyesports for the mobile battle royale community of the country. Just like all other games, Skyesports aims to build a structured roadmap for BGMI esports as well.
In fact, the top two teams of the Skyesports Champions Series (SCS) will receive an invite to the Skyesports Championship 5.0 Finale, which will be a LAN event later this year.
Last year, the inaugural season of the Skyesports Champions Series was held featuring VALORANT in a partnership with Riot Games. The tournament was a part of the road to VCT 2022, giving a platform for South Asian teams to represent the region internationally
