New Delhi, Aug 10 Gaming platform Nostra on Thursday announced that it has reached a monthly active user base of over 82 million gamers in the country.
Nostra is now home to nearly a fifth of India’s mobile gaming population, the company said in a statement.
In the period from January to June 2023, the gaming platform registered a 30 per cent growth in its user base.
"During this period, Nostra witnessed 1.5x growth in the number of games played per session with an average user gaming on the platform for at least 20 minutes every day," the company added.
LIVE streaming of video game tournaments (E-sports) and game streaming were major factors in Nostra's growth during that time.
The platform showed a three-times rise in the amount of time users spend watching game streams and a three-times increase in the number of daily active users for LIVE streaming of gaming tournaments (E-sports).
