Reflecting SuperGaming’s commitment to India’s esports community, the studio has also unveiled its year-long esports roadmap, titled the ‘Clutch India Movement’. This initiative kicks off with the Indus International Tournament, featuring a staggering prize pool of INR 2.5 crores and brings together top Indian and international teams to compete in four tournament phases. This tournament will be followed by the Indus International Mahasangram in October 2025.
Apart from its own first party tournaments, SuperGaming has also planned various community events to nurture emerging talent within the community. By providing Indus’ proprietary tools, the company is set out to enable third-party tournament organisers to host events and tournaments with the same level of efficiency as SuperGaming.
These initiatives underscore SuperGaming’s ambition to foster a vibrant esports community, providing players with not only high-octane competition but also substantial support for their professional growth within the ever-evolving gaming industry.
