Skyesports has announced the participation of Enigma Gaming, a Mumbai-based eSports organization. In these intense games, Enigma Gaming will face off against seven other teams to win the huge prize pool. Enigma Gaming will soon reveal its roster. The organization aims to conquer the Skyesports Masters from its inaugural season itself with a team that includes national players as well as international imports.

Two of the participants will be from the Skyesports Masters café qualifications, a grassroots competition that took place in 20 Indian cities and was accessible to everyone. In-depth information regarding formats and players won is available on the Skyesports Masters Official website. Furthermore, Enigma Gaming’s Founder and CEO, Aryaman Wasan, said,

“Counter-Strike has been a pioneer for the global esports industry. Unfortunately, it wasn’t able to grow in India in the same manner because of the lack of development of esports in the country over the past two decades. Now, with the rapid emergence of esports in India over the past three years, we feel it’s the right time to invest in the game. With a new version coming up and the long-term vision of the Skyesports Masters, we are here to support Counter-Strike for the years to come.”

“The inclusion of Enigma Gaming, alongside renowned franchises, further solidifies Skyesports Masters’ position as India’s biggest gaming tournament. Enigma’s new roster, consisting of international imports as well, is a testament to their long-term commitment towards the vision of India’s first franchised esports tournament and Counter-Strike.”
