In an unexpected twist, the iQOO BGMI Pro Series LAN Event 2024 has undergone a significant change. The Last Chance Qualifier stage has been eliminated, meaning all finalists from the iQOO Pro Series will now directly compete at the LAN event scheduled from February 22nd–24th, 2024, at the Noida Indoor Stadium.
Initially, iQOO announced that 16 BGMI squads would participate in the LAN event. This included the top 11 teams from the Pro Series Finals, two invited outfits (Soul and GodLike), and the top three sides from the LCQ. However, with the LCQ phase removed, the 16 lineups from the Pro Series 2024 Finals and special invitees Soul and GodLike will clash in the three-day, INR 40 lakh contest.

Here are the 16 squads competing at the iQOO BGMI Pro Series LAN Event 2024:
1. Entity Gaming
2. Team IQOOSouL
3. Team Tamilas
4. Medal Esports

10. Dark Spirit Esports
11. Gods Reign

The event will be held at the same venue where the ESL BGMI Pro Series 2024 Challenge Finals will take place from February 16-18. Bookings for the free entry event are already available.
The iQOO BGMI Pro Series so far
Entity Gaming, led by Saumraj, emerged as winners of the Pro Series Finals held on January 31st and February 1st, 2024. They will aim to continue their form and secure their first major BGMI title at the LAN Event. Team Soul secured second place at the Pro Series Finals. Teams XSpark and NinjaJod earned fifth position at the Pro Series and will look to capitalize on their momentum. While teams like Blind, Hydra, and OR struggled at the Pro Series, they see the LAN Event as an opportunity to redeem themselves. Disappointing performances from Gods Reign, Revenant, and GodLike mean these squads have a lot to prove at the LAN tournament.
