We prove the existence of Bayesian Nash Equilibrium (BNE) of general-sum Bayesian games with continuous types and finite actions under the conditions that the utility functions and the prior type distributions are continuous concerning the players' types. Moreover, there exists a sequence of discretized Bayesian games whose BNE strategies converge weakly to a BNE strategy of the infinite Bayesian game. Our proof establishes a connection between the equilibria of the infinite Bayesian game and those of finite approximations, which leads to an algorithm to construct ε-BNE of infinite Bayesian games by discretizing players' type spaces.
