BMIC 2026 Day 2 Results: Korea Leads, India Chasing

BMIC 2026 Day 2 Results: South Korea Leads, Indian Teams Fight Back

The Battlegrounds Mobile India International Cup (BMIC) 2026 is now underway in Mumbai. Two days are done, and the competition is intense. South Korean teams are setting the pace, while Indian teams are working hard to close the gap.

About BMIC 2026

BMIC 2026 is a three-nation BGMI esports LAN event. It is being held at The Dome, SVP Indoor Stadium (NSCI), Mumbai, from 30 October to 1 November.

Sixteen teams from India, South Korea, and Japan are competing for a prize pool of ₹1 crore (10,000,000 INR). There is also a bigger reward: two teams will qualify directly for the PUBG Mobile Global Championship (PMGC) 2026.

Opening Ceremonies

Day 1 began with a live performance by global music producer Alan Walker. The event was inaugurated by Adv. Ashish Shelar, President of the Esports Games Federation India, and Yoo Dong Wan, Consul General of the Republic of Korea in Mumbai.

Day 2 opened with an energetic traditional Dhol Tasha performance, which gave the crowd a strong, local start to the day.

Day 1 Recap: Nongshim RedForce Takes Control

South Korea’s Nongshim RedForce dominated the first day and took the No. 1 spot with 72 overall points. Dplus KIA, also from South Korea, was close behind in second place with 71 points. Kiwoom DRX took third place with 56 points.

Day 2 Recap: Korea Locks the Top Four

Day 2 raised the stakes. Nongshim RedForce pulled well ahead of the lobby. The team reached 128 points with 75 finishes, which kept it firmly in first place.

Dplus KIA stayed in second place with 105 points. South Korea now holds the top four positions on the leaderboard: Nongshim RedForce, Dplus KIA, Kiwoom DRX, and GamePT. That is a strong show of consistency from the Korean side.

How the Indian Teams Are Doing

India’s hopes are still alive, and some teams showed real improvement on Day 2.

Gladiators Esports made the biggest jump. The team was 12th after Day 1 and is now 6th with 79 overall points. Team Outrage is 5th with 83 points. This is the best Indian position, and the team is only 5 points away from breaking into the Korean-held top four. Team SouL is 9th with 72 points. The team has room to climb if it scores well on the final day.

With one day left, a few strong matches can change the standings quickly. That is why the Indian teams still have a real chance.

What to Watch on the Final Day

Three things will decide the final day:

Whether Nongshim RedForce can protect its large lead. Whether Team Outrage or Gladiators Esports can break into the top four. Which two teams will earn the direct spots at PMGC 2026.

Esports tournaments often turn on a single big match, so fans should expect a close finish.

Final Thoughts

BMIC 2026 has shown strong skill and good energy from all three nations. South Korea has the advantage for now, but India’s rising teams are close behind. The final day on 1 November will decide who wins the title and who qualifies for PMGC 2026.
