The new gaming service will initially feature casual gaming, to later include social gaming and eSports. While some games are available under a subscription model, there are over 250 games that gaming enthusiasts can enjoy for free.

Vi Games cover a wide genre of mobile games, including Action, Adventure, Arcade, Casual, Education, Fun, Puzzle, Racing, Sports, and Strategy. Furthermore, there are also games based on Disney cartoons and movies, such as Big Hero 6 Bot Fight, Castle of Illusion, Ducktales Remastered, and Disney Kickoff, among others.

Vi Games Categories

The gaming content on the Vi Games app is divided into three categories:

• Platinum Games
• Gold Games
• Free Games

Gold Games form the largest base of the content library and are accessible via a Gold Pass. The pass offers 30 gaming titles at ₹50 for postpaid users and ₹56 for prepaid users — for a validity of 30 days. Notably, postpaid users with ₹499 and above plans will be offered five free gold games every month.

Platinum Games will be available on pay per download basis through a Platinum Pass at ₹25 for postpaid and ₹26 for prepaid users.

Free Games, as mentioned earlier, are available as free-to-download titles through the Vi app for all subscribers.

Seemingly, Vi Games does not have any popular titles to play for mobile gamers. However, games such as Fruit blaster, Cut the Rope, Basketball Stars, Bubble Shooter, Farm Blocks, Photopia Crime Files, Disney Bola, Big Hero 6 Bot Fight, Lightning League, Frozen Double Trouble, and other popular games are readily accessible on the platform.

We are seeing a significant uptake of gaming consumption in India, with more than 95 percent of gaming enthusiasts using the mobile device to enjoy a wide variety of content. We see gaming as a major focus area of our digital content strategy, and we intend to build a comprehensive play encompassing most facets of gaming with the aim of establishing Vi as a preferred destination for both, casual as well as serious gamers.
