Some of you might face issues while playing PUBG Mobile today (April 4) if a couple of reports are to be believed. As spotted by Beebom, game developer Tencent has announced that PUBG Mobile will stay shut for an entire day in the PUBG Mobile app. If you are a regular PUBG Mobile player, you must've come across a message inside the app titled 'Temporary Suspension of Service'. As per the reports, the message inside the app states that "Tencent Games will temporarily suspend the operation of all its services for a whole day from 0.00am on April 4."
The company has reportedly not revealed the reason for this inside the app, but it has mentioned it on its Weibo account. As per the statement made by the firm, the temporary suspension of service is in order to honour those who have lost their lives in the fight against the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.
