PUBG Mobile India APK download link turned up for a bit on the official website

PUBG Mobile got banned in India late June, and ever since the company has been trying to figure out ways to return to the country with the largest player base in the world. After severing ties with Tencent, we saw PUBG Corp’s parent company Karfton sign a deal with Microsoft Azure to host its PUBG games.

This not only “got rid” of the Chinese connection that the game was banned for, it also ensured that user data would not be on any server with a Chinese connection. While this, on paper, deals with the issues the Indian government had with the app, reports have it that it might be a while before things fall into place.

Recently we saw the official announcement from PUBG Corp that PUBG Mobile is working on coming back to India with an India-specific version of the battle royale. We have already seen teasers for PUBG Mobile India and the full trailer is expected soon. And added to that, according to a MySmartPrice report, some users have spotted the PUBG Mobile India APK download link on the official website.

Many PUBG fans reported spotting the PUBG Mobile India APK download link on the PUBG Mobile India website. The link had two buttons - one labelled Google Play Store and the other a direct APK file download.

However, the buttons themselves did not have any proper links attached to them. Many users reported that they got redirected to different PUBG Mobile resources. Most reports stated that the Google Play Store button led them to the PUBG Mobile India coming soon announcement while the APK download button led them to the PUBG Mobile India Facebook page.

So there is no download link yet and the best thing to do right now is to wait it out. The company still needs an official go ahead from the Indian government before it can do anything.
