Battle royale is a genre that has witnessed rapid growth in the industry over the last few years, and it has understandably taken the world by storm. With several titles within the niche leading the popularity charts on multiple platforms, its safe to say that battle royale titles are here to stay.PUBG has been a cultural phenomenon, and not only has it managed to find success in terms of players, but also in terms of revenue. The mobile variant of the game, which was released in 2018, has been a consistent chart-topper in the segment. Its success can be attributed to the regular updates that are brought in, as well as the seemingly perpetual addition of in-game content, all of which enhance the user experience.Excited to share about my next career move, I join as - Regional Head (India & MENA) of Corporate Development at KRAFTON.
