Imagine a young gamer experiencing the challenging world of “Cyberpunk 2077” or “Alan Wake 2” with stunning clarity on a budget-friendly phone priced under Rs 20,000. Imagine a young professional roaming the busy streets of Mumbai, playing “Red Dead Redemption 2” on their mobile phone during their daily commute. As they travel on a crowded Mumbai local train, the high-definition graphics and seamless gameplay transport them to a world full of cowboys, taking them away from the mundane. Or consider a group of college students in Bangalore who dust off their old laptops in between classes and dive straight into the world of “Dota 2.”
