Meta introduces first-ever Gaming Community Challenge in India – Times of India

Meta has introduced the first-ever Gaming Community Challenge in India which is aimed to help community admins who are trying to build thriving gaming communities on its social media platform Facebook. This new challenge is called the Game of Tribes and it will offer gamers an opportunity to build their communities by connecting with like-minded people on Facebook.
Gaming enthusiasts will have access to several features with Facebook gaming all in one place. These features include — watching gaming videos, building connections in gaming groups/chats, following favourite game titles/creators, exploring new games and playing them with people around the globe.
What is the Game of Tribes Challenge?
The Game of Tribes challenge will allow gaming enthusiasts, publishers, developers and creators to develop an active and engaging community on the social media platform Facebook. The community admins will also be rewarded for reaching various milestones.
All gaming groups on Facebook will be able to register for the challenge. These groups will be categorised under two different categories depending on their age. Groups that are less than a year old will be listed as ‘Lit’ and the groups that are older than a year will be listed as ‘Legends’.
The challenge will be spread across a timespan of 6 months and groups will be marked on the basis of the impact and engagement created by that particular gaming community. Selected community admins will also have an opportunity to be mentored by industry experts, attend masterclasses and understand earning strategies.
Manish Chopra, an executive from Meta, mentioned, “We are committed to growing the gaming ecosystem in the country and through Game of Tribes we will offer connection and support to gaming communities looking to upgrade their skills and expand their gaming connections. In India, more than 20 million people were active members in Facebook gaming groups, between July and August this year and this is a unique opportunity for gaming enthusiasts to interact and learn from thousands of elite gaming groups, creators, community builders and build engaged gaming communities on Facebook.”
People can use the gaming communities on Facebook in multiple ways. Gamers and enthusiasts can host tournaments, upload videos, create live streams, connect with community members and offer engaging topics of discussion to the thriving community. Communique Marketing Solutions will execute this challenge as they are the activation partner for Game of Tribes.
