Free Fire has been soaring in viewership and players for quite a while now, with the Hindi stream of the Free Fire Continental Series alone gathering over 1,5 million people watching. Back in May of 2020 the game hit 80 million daily players, with Over 300 million people playing monthly. The Battle Royale game also became the most downloaded mobile game worldwide back in 2019 and is still going strong.

Western esports organizations looking towards the success of Free Fire and possibly entering the esports scene isn’t a surprise, as mobile gaming has been growing year after year and many mobile games sport an interesting and growing esports scene as well. TSM owner Reginald said in a tweet: “Mobile esports will have more viewership than pc within 5 years.”
