About

Mobile Premier League (MPL), an online gaming company valued at $2.3 billion, is laying off approximately 300 employees, which represents about 60% of its Indian workforce. This drastic downsizing, announced in early September 2025, is a direct result of the Indian government's recent ban on real-money online gaming, which targeted games like fantasy cricket and rummy. The ban has severely disrupted the industry, forcing MPL to shift its focus to free-to-play games and accelerate its expansion into international markets such as the U.S., Europe, and Brazil.
