The Google Play Store and Apple’s App Store removed BGMI from their stores over two months ago without any official announcement. After a user filed an RTI (Right to Information) with MeitY regarding the game, it finally confirmed that it had been blocked under Section 69A of the IT Act 2000. Since then, many BGMI creators are having second thoughts about the game’s return
Recently, Sc0utOP said that the chances of BGMI returning before December seem dicey, and Spero backed the statement by saying he thinks the same. On the other hand, Global Esports CEO Rushindra Sinha said that he is concerned about BGMI. However, Abhijeet “GHATAK” Andhare and Arjun “Shadow” Mandalkar recently assured their viewers that the game might take time, but it will eventually return.
Ghatak and Shadow assures viewers that BGMI will come back
Ghatak and a few other members of GodLike visited Dubai for some undisclosed reason. After returning to India, a viewer asked Ghatak about BGMI’s return on his live stream. He assured the audience that the game would return, but it might take some time. Further, he said he does not want to comment on anything regarding the game.
“Game will come. Don’t get tense. You will be happy when it comes. It will take some time, but BGMI will come back,” said Ghatak. He added, “I don’t want to comment anything more regarding this topic.”
Another user asked Shadow regarding the game’s return on his livestream; he said there are chances that the game will come. He further added that he could not tell the exact date when the game will be released; giving the example of PUBG Mobile, he implied that the date keeps changing.
“There are chances the game will come,” he said. Further, he added, “I can’t tell the exact date when the game will come. Remember what happened when PUBG Mobile was banned?”
Although there has been no official announcement about BGMI, many creators believe that the game will come back in or after December. On the other hand, a few creators believe that the game has lost its hype, and even if it returns, it won’t get the same audience. Furthermore, creators like Casetoo and Maxtern have already quit the game.
