Jonathan Gaming team Apex Gaming launch was a pre-planned affair. Godlike Esports owner, Kronten, recently revealed on stream that Jonathan had made his intentions clear to start something of his own 3-4 months ahead of BGIS 2026. Jonathan had been the poster boy for Godlike ever since he joined it in 2021 with the former TSM entity squad.

In BGIS 2026, Jonathan made a brilliant comeback, ending the grand finals with 31 finishes in 18 games after being benched in the Survival Stages for strategic reasons. The 25-year-old later revealed in his stream that the decision made him sad, but he took it positively for the team.

If there were a main character in BGMI Esports, it would have to be Jonathan. The 25-year-old carries a fan base that has never been seen in the Indian Esports circuit. Just moments after starting team Apex Gaming's page on Instagram, its followers skyrocketed to 200k in the first 3 hours.

Jonathan's Gaming team, Apex Gaming, launch can bring a paradigm shift in BGMI Esports. With the BGMI transfer window 2026 still open, a new roster will be announced for the next official tournament, BMPS 2026. This roster will be locked in on the official dashboard of Krafton India Esports.

Since Jonathan is no longer just a player but an owner, the team will be structured around him as he continues to chase his first BGMI official trophy. A new org, a new team with boosted morale, may be all that is required for Jonathan to get his long-awaited crown.
