PUBG Mobile and PUBG Mobile Lite both were banned by the government in September 2020 citing national security and data breach. Since then, many claims have been made about the relaunch of the game in India. Earlier, various assertion was made about the game launching in Diwali, but it didn’t happen. In November, an Indian version of the PUBG Mobile was announced and players were overjoyed and filled with hopes. But again, the excitement was short-lived as there’s no official statement made about the relaunch of the game. In the last few months, the company has been trying hard to bring back the game for Indian players. But the current situations and official statement from Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology suggests that the fans of PUBG Mobile need to wait more.

[PC] Update 10.3 is now on the Test Server.

This update sees Karakin lighting changes, Weapon Sound Selection, Reputation System improvements and more.

Alongside these changes are a multitude of bug fixes and performance improvements.
