The 2022 WE Championships was a historic moment for female gamers, as the introduction of the women’s CS:GO tournament drew large crowds and was a massive stride towards greater inclusion in esports.

This reflects the progress we have made in making esports more inclusive for all. We can’t wait to see what these incredible teams will bring to this year’s competition. IESF strongly believes in removing barriers to access for female gamers, and providing them with more opportunities to shine on the world’s biggest stage.”

IESF Chief Marketing Officer Ana Karakolevska said: “I am proud of IESF for leading the charge in making esports more inclusive for all. We have made rapid progress in just a few years and IESF hopes to continue providing opportunities to promote gender equality in the World Esports Family and beyond. We can’t wait to watch 10 of the world’s best teams battle it out in fast-paced CS:GO action in Iași!”

IESF’s regional qualifiers for the WE Championships will get underway in May and June, and the top ten female CS:GO teams will secure their spots in the Finals, which will begin in August.

Reading Time: 2 minutes

Neela Mediatech, a trailblazing Indian gaming studio, is redefining the gaming landscape by leveraging beloved intellectual properties to create interactive entertainment experiences. By expanding the universe of Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah beyond television, the company has transformed the iconic show into a multi-platform gaming phenomenon.

The studio’s latest release, Gada Electronics, has emerged as a top game in mobile gaming, proving that nostalgia-driven storytelling combined with strategic gameplay can drive massive engagement. The game has achieved remarkable milestones, ranking #2 among all App Store games in India, surpassing PUBG, and also securing the #1 position in the Adventure & Simulation category on iOS. With over 5 million downloads across Android and iOS, Gada Electronics manages a D1 retention of 35% as well. With Gada Electronics, Neela Mediatech has set a new benchmark for Indian IP-driven gaming.

Unlike traditional simulation games, Gada Electronics allows players to step into the shoes of Jethalal Gada, one of India’s most beloved TV characters, as they manage and expand his iconic electronics store. The game integrates elements of business strategy, resource management, and decision-making, making it both entertaining and intellectually engaging.

India’s mobile gaming market has long been dominated by battle royale and casual games, but Neela Mediatech has taken a unique approach by harnessing local intellectual properties that deeply resonate with Indian audiences.

Commenting on this success, Mr. Asit Kumarr Modi, Founder of Neela Mediatech, said, “For years, Indian audiences have loved the world of Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah. With Gada Electronics, we’ve given them a way to engage with the brand in an interactive format. This success proves that Indian IP-driven gaming has the potential to rival global franchises.” With an established fan base, the game has witnessed exceptional user engagement, retention, and organic adoption, further demonstrating the power of homegrown IPs in India’s gaming industry.

The success of Gada Electronics reflects a larger transformation in India’s gaming sector. The country’s gaming market is projected to reach $8.36 billion by 2030, with simulation games alone crossing 1 billion downloads in 2023. Business simulation gaming is expected to grow from $2.5 billion in 2023 to $5.8 billion by 2032.

Mr. Harjeet Chhabra, CEO of Neela Mediatech, highlighted the shift in the industry, stating, “For years, Hollywood and global gaming giants have capitalized on IP-driven gaming—whether it’s Marvel, Star Wars, or Pokémon. India has an equally rich library of beloved franchises, and we are just scratching the surface of its gaming potential.”

Following the overwhelming success of Gada Electronics, Neela Mediatech is focused on expanding its IP-driven gaming portfolio. The company is working on new Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah-themed edutainment app for kids aged 2-6. Plans are also underway for interactive storytelling experiences featuring beloved TMKOC characters.

By seamlessly blending nostalgia, storytelling, and technology, Neela Mediatech is not just creating games—it is building a dynamic gaming ecosystem for Indian audiences. From television screens to mobile gaming, the future of IP-driven gaming has arrived, and Neela Mediatech is leading the charge.

Push Gaming has entered the Bulgarian market thanks to an exclusive deal with Kaizen Gaming brand Betano, marking a milestone in its expansion in globally regulated markets.

The launch enhances Push’s relationship with Kaizen Gaming, which has already seen success with its award-winning content in Greece, Denmark, and Brazil.

“We know the strength of our product, and allied with Kaizen Gaming’s prominent positioning across regulated markets, we can make the most of our regional entries. They’re a fantastic strategic partner to work alongside, which breeds exceptional confidence that every launch period will perform strongly.”

Evangelos Dedoulis, Director of Product, Gaming and Rewards at Kaizen Gaming,  added: “Push Gaming is responsible for some of the finest games on the market, and as such, we have been eagerly anticipating bringing them to our Betano platform in Bulgaria too.
