WinZO, a vernacular e-sports gaming platform, Thursday said it is setting up a USD 1.5 million (over Rs 10 crore) fund to support game developers and acquire content for the platform.
Kaalari Capital-backed WinZO offers over 25 games on its app-based platform in 10 languages, including English, Hindi, Bengali, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada and Gujarati.
The company aims to develop real-time multi-player mobile gaming experience that is social, inclusive, and accessible for the first-time smartphone users in tier II and III markets, a statement said.
WinZO would use the funds set aside to develop localised content for the platform in partnership with cherry-picked game developers in India and around the world, it added.
