Here is an update for the players of Battlegrounds Mobile India (BGMI). They may soon be able to play BGMI again! As per the latest updates, Krafton is changing the location of Battlegrounds Mobile India Servers. It can be known that the Indian Government had banned BGMI due to suspected privacy breach. The game was removed from Google Play Store and Apple's App store to stop further downloads. And now according to Insidesport, BGMI servers are changing from India-Singapore to India-Malaysia. The news of data migration has given a boost to speculation that the ban by India may get lifted soon.

It can be known that ever since the news of data migration in BGMI started circulating, the likely date of the return of the title is increasingly being speculated about. "All these speculations picked up pace when many fans started facing an “account migration” prompt upon searching for specific player IDs in BGMI," Insidesport said in the report.
