Indian fans of the smash-hit game PUBG Mobile are all set to bid adieu to the game on October 30 this year as Tencent Games is terminating all service and access to the game for India's gamers. The move comes as a follow up to the Indian government’s decision to ban over a hundred apps in the country, including PUBG.
Tencent Games has confirmed that it will revoke the services of PUBG Mobile and PUBG Lite from India today. These apps by Tencent Games remained unaffected by the blanket ban, which the Indian Government had enforced on over a hundred apps.
