Battlegrounds Mobile India Is Here: How To Download On Android And iOS

The developer had rolled out the option for Android users to preload the game on their devices.

After a nearly 10-month-long absence from India, South Korean game developer Krafton’s Battlegrounds Mobile India has made its return. The mobile game is once again available for downloads across Android devices from May 29. iOS devices will get the app soon. The developer had rolled out the option for Android users to preload the game on their devices.

But, some users may need to wait up to two whole days before they can log in and start playing. The delay is due to the reason that Krafton is only letting users log in to the service in a staggered manner. This is likely to avoid overloading the servers as millions of players try to join in at the same time.

“BGMI is now playable and has been rolled out with the 2.5 Update, offering a refined and immersive experience for gamers. To ensure a seamless experience, the game’s playability will be staggered, allowing users to login in phases,” the company said in a press release.

“This is a phased rollout. So, you may not be able to access the game immediately but worry not! We’ve got you covered. For iOS we expect downloads to start from noon. It is completely randomized (and even the admin has to wait for it),” BGMI India tweeted.

BGMI India New Features:

BGMI, the Indian clone of the widely popular PUBG Mobile from the same developer, had been banned in July last year. The Indian government had cited data concerns behind the ban since the game’s servers were located in China.

The government ban was revoked a few weeks earlier, allowing Krafton to operate the game for a trial period of three months to ensure compliance with data security. The game has been re-launched with a brand new map, a new battle pass, time limits on daily games and new in-game items.
