NEW DELHI: With its aim to have a global fan base of 5 million people, Blue Billion Tech Pvt Ltd on Monday launched two apps for cricket and football lovers.
The success of Gullyy T20 Live during the IPL 2018 has resulted in the creation of GullyyT20 Tez. Whereas, the company announced plans to introduce the Gullyy Football gaming app as the FIFA World Cup is just over two weeks away.
Gullyy.com was set up earlier this year, providing an array of mobile games based on cricket and football.
Gullyy T20 Tez is an extension of GullyyT20 Live, wherein the game is fast-paced and must be finished within 45 minutes. The game is to be played on the historic T20 matches from previous seasons. The entire process of buying tickets, editing tickets and claiming prizes remains the same as Gullyy T20 Live.
“We believe cricket is what it is in India, because of its fans. Our aim is to keep these cricket fans engaged and also give them an exciting opportunity to add to their overall experience while they watch their favourite teams perform. The best part about Gullyy Games is that everyone can play them on their phones and win prizes on the basis of their understanding, love and knowledge of the game. Gaming is all about engaging with fans and the tremendous success of Gullyy T20 Live proves this hypothesis,” says Bijoy George, co-founder of Gullyy.com.
Gullyy Football will be launched on June 14th, just before the first game of World Cup 2018 and aims to target the global football fan base. Gullyy Football is designed on a similar concept to the Gullyy T20 Live but with some variances that will be revealed when the game is launched. The participants can win prizes by accurately predicting a set of outcomes at the start of each match.
The app has joined hands with Sherlock’s Pub, which is present in cities such as Bangalore, Pune, Chennai and Dubai. This is aimed at adding to the participant’s experience of FIFA World Cup 2018 by creating a stadium-like atmosphere with big screens, friendly competitions and also a chance to win on the spot prizes during the match hours while playing Gullyy Football.
Surendra Bardia, co-founder of Gullyy.com said, “These are exciting times in the gaming space in India and the opportunity to expand the fan base cross multiple sports by getting them to engage, build communities and win real prizes is what keeps the players clued in through the duration of the game.”
Both the games will be available for download on both Android and iOS devices.
