Battlegrounds Mobile India is currently only out for Android users. IOS users will have to wait a little longer for BGMI to be available for them. While KRAFTON has assured iOS players that they would “keep our fans informed on further developments”, there is no official release date yet. However, some players have taken to using emulators to play BGMI on their PCs. An emulator simulates an Android device on your computer, letting you download apps you find on the Google Play Store. Here is how to download and play BGMI on PC using an emulator.
