The Indian government last week banned 118 Chinese apps which included highly popular game, PUBG. Since the ban the gaming community has been upset, but we have some good news.

After good communication with Indian Govt, PUBG Corporation has made the decision to no longer authorize the PUBG MOBILE franchise to Tencent Games in India. Moving forward, PUBG Corporation will take on all publishing responsibilities within the country. PUBG Mobile is the mobile version PUBG, an intellectual property owned and developed by PUBG Corporation, a South Korean gaming company. The company said it is actively engaged in developing and publishing PUBG on multiple platforms, including PUBG Mobile in select territories, to provide the best player experiences possible.

The company also said that it understands and respects the measures taken by the Indian government. "PUBG Corporation fully understands and respects the measures taken by the government as the privacy and security of player data is a top priority for the company.  

The popular mobile game has been pulled out from both Google Play Store and Apple App Store in India following the directive from the government. Earlier this month, the government banned 118 apps over national security concerns. But ban is still on, we have to wait some time to get more info regarding this from Govt.
