Revealing the Astonishing earnings of professional Indian gamers amidst gaming surge

Gaming boom far from reality for many aspirants in India: Expert.

While renowned streamers and pro-gamers flourish in India’s growing gaming industry, a successful career remains elusive for most, says Animesh Agarwal of 8bit Thug. In a podcast, the expert pointed to popularity and profits of icons like Mortal, Scout and Mythpat who earn millions from YouTube, endorsements.

However, for many struggling to break even, competitive playing takes them up to Rs. 35 lakhs annually at best as opportunities stay scarce.

A key hurdle, as per Agarwal, is the absence of role clarity beyond streaming. Limited sustainability arises from cutthroat competition amid sectoral ambiguity.

Success additionally demands luck and timing above skills, owing to the unpredictable nature of gaming.

Agarwal feels that India currently witnesses a talent overflow despite the infant stage, emphasizing the importance of funds and incubators in aiding developers.

Initiatives promoting upcoming talents and studios provide positive indications. He suggests that India can lead globally with the right policies and investments.

While glamour surrounds some individual achievers, transforming gaming into a viable profession for the masses requires concerted efforts from all quarters. Unless addressed, the true potential of this sunrise sector may elude the country.
