According to the information, PUBG Mobile India launch is near. In September of 2020, the Indian government’s Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology blocked 118 apps including PUBG Mobile with Chinese connections over mishandling of users’ data.
To return to India, PUBG Corp. decoupled from Tencent for its Indian operations and announced the development of PUBG Mobile India — a new variant of the game with servers located in India, lesser violence, new visuals and smaller download size.
However, these efforts are yet to bear fruits, as the Government is still to approve of PUBG Mobile India. In fact, subsequent reports even stated that it might never launch in India again.
The lauch report was found on YouTuber GodNixon (Luv Sharma) channel and claims that the required approvals are in place, citing sources close to the government, in a video title “PUBG Mobile India Update! Government Approved”. It needs to be noted that there is no official confirmation of the same, so take this with a pinch of salt.
