Krafton has just announced that two more teams have been eliminated from the BGMI Open Challenge this week. Infinity X and Blac Official were excluded from the tournament for using illegal applications and activities.
Several other teams, including Won’t Forgive and Able Esports, were suspended from the tournament for similar violations of the BMOC Rulebook. While it’s unfortunate that the tournament has had cheating issues of this magnitude, it’s a positive sign that Crafton is keeping an eye on things and mitigating any issues related to an uneven playing field.
Round 3 of the BGMI Open Challenge is almost here as Group 1 matches are ready to kick off on May 5th.

BMOC, despite instances of fraud and rule violations, has been a great success so far, with spectators tuning in in droves to see some of the best esports competition Crafton has to offer. Krafton has a big focus on esports as they announced 4 major tournaments for 2022 at the start of the year.
