With gaming on the rise in India, several games have grown in popularity and capture players’ attention more than others. Nagpur is a host to a variety of ardent gaming enthusiasts according to some recent research reports. This community primarily consists of consumers who play games online, which has led to the growing demand for immersive gaming. In this article, we will look into some of the most played online games in Nagpur.

PUBG – PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds is a crazy success not only in India but also across the world. PUBG managed to start the fashion for battle royale encounters, in which vast numbers of players are placed onto sprawling areas. Then they have to gather gear and fight against each other even as the playing region steadily shrinks. In the game, 100 players can battle against each other to be the last one standing. The last person remaining gets a chicken dinner. 

Many other games have been launched to give “PUBG” a strong competition, but it continues to be the most installed online game (in this genre) among players in India through both iOS and Android devices. Even Fortnite does not appear to be able to slow this game’s popularity for the time being. 

Bluehole, a Korean developer’s subsidiary PUBG Corp created this title and designed it for PC. Tencent(China’s largest gaming company) entered into a partnership with the Korean developer, where they worked to enter the market.  

The data sets available show PUBG is most popular in Lucknow followed by Nagpur and Agra.

Call of Duty – Activision’s Call of Duty series has become one of the most popular game franchises of all time. Players get excited about it because of the game’s intensity, movie-quality clips, satire and vibrant online culture.

Call of Duty: Mobile – As mobile gaming is the main outlet for online gaming in India, it does not surprise that this version of Call of Duty series is leading the downloaded game charts.
