IndiGG acquires MUS consolidating its leadership position in India
IndiGG continues to expand in India by acquiring guilds among other gaming partners
IndiGG is happy to announce that we’ve acquired MUS Guild.
Through this acquisition, we’ve not just acquired MUS Guild and all their scholars, but also onboarded the MUS team including the founder Abhishek Anand to lead business initiatives at IndiGG.
IndiGG is eager to work with industry partners and collaborate to grow the gaming ecosystem in India leading charge of the web3 gaming juggernaut in our country.
Last month we officially launched IndiGG in collaboration with YGG, Polygon (MATIC), and Polygon Studios and began our mission to introduce Indian gamers to crypto games. After witnessing the work MUS Guild had done, we were greatly impressed by their understanding of the guild space and decided to absorb them right away.
Acquiring MUS will help our initiative to empower gamers in India by participating in play-to-earn games. India is home to roughly 400 million online gamers (according to a report by BCG) to date, making the region one of the deepest talent pools in the world.
About MUS Guild
MUS Guild has offered 70+ scholarships to date in the game known as Axie Infinity, the most popular play-to-earn game at this time. Scholars are gamers selected by a guild who showcase determination to succeed in blockchain-based games. These scholarships were awarded to players in both India and the Philippines.
Over the last 3 months, MUS Guild grew to a Discord community of around 3000+ members, 70+ scholars, 500+ people on the scholarship waitlist, and an inventory size of 400+ Axie NFTs.
Welcoming the MUS Guild to the IndiGG team
With this acquisition, IndiGG will absorb all the scholars, mods, and community managers of the MUS Guild. Abhishek Anand joins IndiGG with his experience from running MUS Guild. Abhishek shares with us why he joined forces with IndiGG to make a larger impact on the gaming ecosystem in India:
IndiGG is the first professional guild from India with seasoned, battle-scarred advisors including the likes of Gabby Dizon, Sandeep Nailawal and Siddharth Jain who are the respected founders and leaders of YGG and Polygon respectively. With veterans like them on the team and access to the broader ecosystem of YGG and Polygon, it was a no-brainer for me to join hands with IndiGG to create a gargantuan ecosystem for Web3 gamers in India. IndiGG is best placed to place preferential bets in different early stage, Indie and AAA games to provide a basket of games to our community and turn India into a Web3 gaming powerhouse.
With MUS being our first guild acquisition, we wish to let other micro guilds from India know that we are open to absorbing them. If you’d like to get in contact with our team, please fill out the form below:
