7SEA and Team Soul to represent India in PMWI 2022. The BMPS Season 1 was held in June where Team Soul clinched the Grand finals and came out on top. Team Soul and 7SEA Esports are expected to represent India in the PUBG Mobile World Invitational in 2022 after winning the esports competition exclusively for India.
In India, BGMI was abruptly banned, which put Krafton’s ambitions in jeopardy. The Battlegrounds Mobile Pro Series (BMPS) Season 1 champion, however, was unaffected by the ban because they had finally received an invitation to the (PMWI) 2022 tournament. At the World Invitational competition in June, Team Soul’s spot was nearly guaranteed.
7SEA and Team Soul to Participate in PMWI 2022
As word of the ban spread, speculation that the Indian teams would not be participating in PMWI 2022 increased. There was a rumor that no Indian team will attend PMWI. However, it was eventually discovered—much to the delight of many fans—that Team Soul and 7SEA are two of the 25 teams taking part in the PUBG Mobile World Invitational (PMWI) 2022.

BGMI Ban in India
On July 28, the Android and iOS app stores withdrew BGMI, the Indian version of PUBG Mobile. The Indian government reportedly ordered the blocking of Battlegrounds Mobile in India at some point. The prohibition was officially announced the next day, July 29. According to allegations, Krafton was complicit in the illicit gathering and transfer of data to its servers in China. However, any claims on the same were refuted in Krafton’s official statement.
