When will PUBG launch in India?
The launch of the world's one of the most downloaded game has continued to remain a mystery as there has been no formal discussion between PUBG/ Krafton and the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY). There has been no official meeting about the launch of PUBG Mobile India with MeitY, according to an RTI.
PUBG Mobile was banned in India along with 117 other apps back in September last year. Ever since then, the developers have tried to bring the game back to India and have made various tweaks like changing the name to PUBG Mobile India, changing the colour of blood from the game etc.
