Why Gaming and eSports?
eSports, the professional side of gaming, in recent years has gained much attraction from youths globally. The $83 billion gaming industry is growing rapidly at a compound annual growth rate of 5.7% and an estimated global value of US $93.18 billion is expected to be achieved by 2019. The idea of gamers battling to win tournaments with hundreds of thousands to millions watching their each and every move online is alluring. In the coming years, this phenomenon is only expected to continue its rapid expansion.

In 2014, nearly 205 million people either participated in or watched eSports: and this number has seen an unbelievable growth of nearly 21% in every year since. In fact, considering the number of YouTube views and followers that movies, news or other educational videos have received altogether, gaming videos has outdone that figure.

Some of the well-liked tournaments that have gained popularity in recent times include The League of Legends World Championship, The International, Counter Strike Majors, Call of Duty World Championship et al.

Future of Gaming and eSports in India
The first competition that ever took place in the gaming industry was back in 1972 at the Stanford University and the game was Spacewar. Since then, this industry has slowly and steadily groomed itself among the young generation and is spreading its roots globally. Nearly 2,000 gaming teams from India are active in the industry, participating in number of championships nationally and internationally. In India only, there are nearly 10 million serious online gamers and around 30% of today’s young generation between the age of 16-27 are engaged in online gaming on the daily basis.

In India too, the craze for competitive gaming is picking up a pace from its early stages where many are deploying their talent in this arena. The year 2016 has seen many Indian youths winning eSports tournaments such as DewArena, leSC and Flipkart Gaming Online Championship among others.
