PUBG Mobile India’s aim to launch the game back in India has received a massive roadblock after MEITY (Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology) has denied permission for the company to launch the game in the country. Despite being registered on the company of the Ministry of Corporate Affairs, MEITY was the entity that banned PUBG along with 100 other apps in September and their permission is absolutely mandatory for the game to begin their launch in the country. PUBG Mobile Corporation has requested a meeting with MEITY but the Ministry has not yet responded. Having built-up to a fever pitch in November with the announcement that they were coming back, their plans have taken a big hit and their woes have doubled with FAU-G setting a new pre-registration record of 1.06 million.

Now, there is fresh speculation regarding PUBG Mobile India. According to a Sportskeeda report, a prominent Indian gamer by the Twitter handle of @RealMaxtern has stated that PUBG Mobile India might make a major announcement on Christmas Day. The gamer himself quoted internal sources within PUBG Mobile India. It must be reiterated that neither Google Play, MEITY or PUBG Corporation have released any official statement regarding the status of PUBG Mobile India launch.

PUBG Mobile India is also facing a battle against NCPCR (National Commission for Protection of Child Rights) demanding some ‘appropriate legislations’ in place. NCPCR chairperson Priyank Kanoongo has told PTI that NCPCR is not in favour of such a game due to the graphic violence associated with PUBG Mobile.

Plenty of speculations

According to some gaming sites, PUBG Mobile India will be different from the global version in some ways. This will give the game a whole new identity in India and it will enhance the gaming experience for the users.

What will be different for PUBG Mobile in India as compared to the global version? Well, it begins straight from the name. The name of the game in India will be PUBG Mobile India while in the global market, it will just be PUBG Mobile. According to reports, there are changes in the gameplay for the Indian market. The developers have apparently revealed that there will be not be too much bloodshed shown and the dresses and characters will be according to Indian sensibilities.

According to reports, KRAFTON, which is a collective of independent game development teams responsible for various entertainment properties like PUBG and TERA have tied up with Microsoft Azure.

How does this development impact PUBG Mobile India? It is a massive development on the security front. Microsoft Azure is a cloud computing service created by Microsoft for building, testing, deploying, and managing applications and services through Microsoft-managed data centers.
