Krafton India’s recent BGMI player survey has started fresh discussions around ads being added to the game. The survey clearly asks players how they feel about advertisements and where they would be acceptable. While nothing has been officially announced, these questions suggest that Krafton is thinking about new ways to earn revenue from BGMI.
So far, BGMI has worked with different brands like automobile companies, music artists, and movie promotions. These partnerships usually appeared as special events or themed content and did not interrupt gameplay.
However, this time, Krafton is directly asking players about ads, which feels like a more direct and planned approach.
Ads in BGMI: Is Krafton India Exploring a New Revenue Model?
In the survey, Krafton asks where ads should appear if they are added to BGMI. The options include ads during matchmaking on Spawn Island, ads after a match ends, or ads that players can watch to earn coupon crates.
Players are also asked how much they would be willing to pay each month to play BGMI without ads, starting from ₹50.
Even though BGMI has a very large player base in India, its revenue is still lower compared to PUBG Mobile globally. Other versions, such as Game for Peace in China or the Japan and Korea versions of PUBG Mobile, earn more due to better spending habits and stronger monetisation systems.

For Krafton India, ads could help earn money from players who do not usually spend on in-game items. At the same time, player reaction will matter a lot. If ads feel forced or annoying, they could harm the gaming experience.
That is likely why Krafton is asking for feedback before making any changes.
At the moment, ads in BGMI remain only a possibility. But the survey shows that Krafton is actively looking at new ways to balance player experience with long-term revenue.
