Will PUBGM2 Be Available in India?
PUBG Mobile was banned in India because it was developed by Chinese developer Tencent and not Krafton, the Korean studio behind PUBG PC. If PUBGM2 is fully developed by Krafton, a ban may not be imposed on the upcoming title. With no official announcement yet, Indian fans will have to wait and see if the upcoming title will be available in India following the ban of PUBG Mobile last year. Krafton has reportedly been working on getting the ban on PUBG Mobile lifted, but there has been no official news regarding the title coming back to the country yet.
