The Coronavirus has caused many industries to lose much more due to the social distancing formula as directed by the WHO. However, if we talk about the gaming industry, it is not affected because many games are online, multiplayer, and can be played from home. Moreover, according to the “Mortal” Mathur, as a good player and steamer of Pubg mobile, He thinks that gaming is not much impacted by COVID-19.
During the lockdown of the country, as directed by their government, the pro teams can practice together in their boot camps. The streamers can also do regular work and stream from their homes, as usual. Many big tournaments were canceled and postponed, but you can play them online as scheduled on Pubg mobile.
In Mortal’s view, Team Soul can practice for 5 hours daily. But during the tournament, they can rest to make themselves more efficient. He also said that earlier, he always used sniper rifles, but now he is switching to the DP-28. During this lockdown, Team Soul focuses on improving their strategy rather than winning matches.
Mortal also shared that the pub’s future will remain on top because of its esports scene. While the competitor, Call of Duty, is also a user-gainer game, it’s still always beyond the public. So, collectively, the gaming industry will not be affected by COVID-19 because all the games are online and multiplayer, which can be played from home.
