Krafton recently unveiled the structure for the 2022 BGMI Esports. The registrations for the first BGMI event, Battlegrounds Mobile India Open Challenge (BMOC), will start on March 14th and continue till March 27th.
To register, a player must have a BGMI account that is at least Level 25 and a Platinum five or higher rating. The roster limit for the tournament has also been increased from four players to six.
The structure for the event is as follows:
- Stage 1 (Open Qualifiers): Every registered team will battle in open qualifiers starting at the end of March, out of which the top 512 teams will qualify for the next round.
- Stage 2: These qualified 512 teams will fight in Round 1 for 256 spots in the next round. In Round 2, these 256 teams will compete for only 64 places. In Round 3, they will compete for 32 seats once more.
- Stage 3: The top 32 BMOC teams will now be pitted against the 32 invited teams. This stage will be played in a round-robin format and only half of them (32 teams) will move on to the next stage.
- The teams that will clear Stage 3 (i.e., the top 32 teams) will book their berths for the Battlegrounds Mobile India Pro Series (BMPS) Season 1.
Krafton has also confirmed that the Indian team will participate in the Global Championship slated to be held at the end of 2022/early 2023. Different teams from across the globe participated in the Global Championship 2021. They battled for more than a month for a $6 million prize pool and prized trophy.
