E-sports Pakistan is a billion-dollar industry but due to the lack of support of concerned authorities, the industry is deprived of growth.
Online gaming is a billion-dollar industry and Pakistan has 20% annual growth in it. If we recognize the talent and choose them for international tours we can lift the online gaming industry in Pakistan.
There are only a few organizations that are working to grow Esports in Pakistan.
It’s quite early to predict the scope of esports in Pakistan because recently PUBG was banned in Pakistan which put the gamers in a state of distress.
Secondly, Pakistani households don’t take this profession seriously. We need to educate people about the golden opportunities and revenue of this niche. The universities also don’t train students to increase their gamification skills which has created a huge skill gap between the local and global players.
And last, our government needs to support more especially to upgrade the internet services in Pakistan.
Khushi Khadim, Sukkur
