According to Krafton, the 32 teams who advance to BMPS Season 1 will participate in the events in a Round Robin format, and 16 teams will advance to the BMPS finals. The winning team will take home Rs. 75 lakh in prize money. Both BMOC and BMPS series will be online only, and Krafton has confirmed that it will not conduct offline LAN finals for these tournaments.

The upcoming BMOC series is the first esports event to be introduced by Krafton in 2022, and the publisher recently announced four esports tournaments in India in 2022, with a total prize pool of Rs. 6 crore. Out of these, BMPS Season 1 and Season 2 will have a prize pool of Rs. 2 crore each, and the tournaments will begin with the BMOC which is open to all eligible users. Last year, Krafton promised investments worth $100 million (roughly Rs. 763 crore) in India, in order to improve local gaming, esports and entertainment and IT industries in the country.
