Battle Ground Mobile India, or PUBG, is a multiplayer first-person and third-person shooter game that made its official return on July 2021 after getting banned by the government of India. BGMI is a really popular game, and it was one of the first games which started an online multiplayer gaming trend in India. As per the latest report, BGMI had over 90 Million + downloads in the official Google play store app.
BGMI’s original name was PUBG, and it was owned by the Chinese multinational company Tencent. But it suffered massively due to the India-China conflict, which ultimately led to the government banning the app, along with several other china based apps, in order to stop these companies from stealing Indian data and transferring it to China.
After that looking at PUBG’s craze and its popularity among Indian audiences, Korea-based gaming company Krafton Inc, purchased its rights, renamed the game, and launched it with a brand new version. But on July 2022, the government of India decided to remove the game officially from the play store app, yet people could download the game online and play it without using any VPN.
