**New Delhi, March 24, 2025** – South Korean gaming giant KRAFTON, the creator of Battlegrounds Mobile India (BGMI), plans to significantly increase its investment in India’s rapidly growing gaming sector. KRAFTON CEO Sean Hyunil Sohn announced that the company, which already invested $200 million, will not set fixed investment limits for the market, citing India’s strong potential.

India is among KRAFTON’s top five global markets, driven by a mobile-first gaming culture, widespread smartphone adoption, and a large young, tech-savvy population. Sohn highlighted the positive regulatory landscape, praising the government’s constructive approach and defined processes. He emphasized that India’s unique mobile-first gaming environment, coupled with its young demographic, presents a unique opportunity.

While acknowledging the market’s relative youth compared to global counterparts, Sohn expressed strong optimism for future growth, projecting significant expansion within the next 2-3 years. He also noted that BGMI remains one of the country’s most popular games, with a steadily increasing user base and revenue.

KRAFTON’s future investments will focus on both organic growth and potential acquisitions of companies that share its passion for game development and the Indian market. Sohn also stressed the need for greater awareness of gaming as a viable career path, advocating for collaboration between industry, government, and educational institutions to cultivate the next generation of Indian gaming talent.
