For many young Indians chasing careers beyond conventional paths, Good Game has opened a high-stakes gateway. The world’s first as-live global gaming reality show has officially launched in India to search for the country’s First Global Gaming Superstar, announcing a prize money of ₹1 crore (USD 100,000) and an opportunity to represent India at a global level. Actor and entrepreneur Samantha Ruth Prabhu has joined as global brand ambassador alongside cricketer Rishabh Pant and leading gaming creator Ujjwal Chaurasia.
Beyond entertainment, the initiative reflects the growing economic and cultural importance of gaming. Good Game plans to invest up to ₹100 crore annually and is inviting brands and sponsors to associate with the platform, which is projected to reach at least 500 million young viewers across India. The competitive format blends esports, mainstream entertainment and real-world performance, testing participants not only on gaming skills but also creativity, on-screen presence and performance under pressure.
Founder Rai Cockfield said the show aims to empower talent from across India and create lifelong career opportunities, while Samantha Ruth Prabhu noted that such platforms reflect how ambition and success are being redefined by the next generation. Registrations for auditions are open to Indian citizens above 18, with in-person auditions scheduled in Mumbai on February 14–15 and Delhi on February 28 and March 1, 2026.
