Marketers have been diverting their focus towards the gaming and esports industry in India. Brands understand the potential of the industry and how rapidly it has grown. Brands that are industry-specific like ASUS, HyperX, etc. always had their focus on gaming influencers. Surprisingly, brands that are not industry-specific have started investing in gaming talents judging the potential and influential powers of the young gamers, who are committed, consistent and loyal. The rising popularity of gaming is something which is appealing to advertising and marketing, hoping to align their brands with this loyalty. As gaming and live streaming continue to fuel development, marketers are increasingly paying attention to esports. Smart marketers want to connect with millennials and meet them where they are. They don't watch TV or utilise other forms of traditional media. Video games are the perfect location to do so. And the greatest gaming opportunity for advertisers lies in esports and gaming, which has become the new social networking platform. Millennials, Generation Z and Generation A are difficult to reach demographics. However, if done genuinely and in a way that provides value to these communities, this type of media has the potential to be incredibly engaging in new ways. People are eager to take part. People desire to connect and be a part of something bigger than them. And gamers want to support brands who they believe support them. Influencers have always been a good medium for brands to advertise. Influencer marketing has been a trend for past few years. In the early stages, influencers who caught brand attention were famous models, YouTubers and social media renowned personalities. In recent years, a new group of influencers have emerged i.e gaming content creators, who not only play the games but also entertain their audiences; their fan following is mostly the age group of 15 to 30, which is the most targeted audience in advertising terms. There are 90% chances of the target audience which is always an advantageous situation for brands. Brand participation should seem like an investment in gaming and players not like a cash grab or "commercial." Esports firms are partnering with brands to conduct tournaments and provide amateur and rising gamers with excellent prizes, scouting and rating. Things like this provide the community a strong sense of worth, which leads to brand adoption and affection. Out of all the influencers in the market, gamers are known to have the best audience engagement in terms of viewership and audience creator relationships. Audiences tend to admire their creators and feel more connected to them due to their high level of engagement. Not forgetting the fact that gaming influencers are easy to approach. For example- products like gaming phones, if audiences see a gamer playing on a particular phone and giving good results in the game. The audience will definitely think about buying that phone. “Out of all the influencers in the market, gamers are known to have the best audience engagement in terms of viewership and audience creator relationships.
