It may be mentioned that the online gaming market is set to witness 2.9 billion players worldwide by this year-end. According to a report by consulting major KPMG, the Indian online gaming market is expected to grow 113% to Rs. 290 billion (or roughly $3.91 billion) by 2025 from Rs. 136 billion (roughly $1.83 billion) in FY21. During the period, these gaming platforms are expected to attract 657 million users compared with 433 million now.
People who wish to compete will benefit from the platform since it allows users to track their own development by competing against others, stated the start up in a release. It further claimed that Quizbee is also a fantastic way to pass the time “because there are interesting categories like sports and movies where individuals may compete with others and win money if they know a lot about the subject”. Every room has a very small entry fee and the prize pool for the room gets created based on the entry given so as the user base grows the prize pool has the potential to reach lakhs of rupees”.
