PUBG Mobile has become a massively popular game in India. However, the addictive free-to-play game has received criticism for allegedly promoting violence and even distracting kids from studies. There have also been demands to impose a ban on the game. PUBG (PlayerUnknown BattleGrounds) India has now finally responded to the criticism and has promised to roll out certain features to encourage healthy gaming experience for Indian users.
“We appreciate the support and trust given to us by our PUBG MOBILE players. While we strive to deliver the best possible gaming experience to our fans, we also believe that it is extremely important for us to be a responsible member of the gaming ecosystem. To this end, we constantly work and shall continue to work with different stakeholders, including parents, educators and government bodies, and listening to their feedback on what we can do to enhance the overall PUBG MOBILE experience”, said the PUBG Mobile team in a statement. "To foster a healthy and balanced in-game environment, we are developing numerous new features and enhancements which enables us to provide an environment for players to enjoy PUBG MOBILE in a rewarding and responsible manner. We are honored to have a passionate community of PUBG MOBILE players in India and globally and continue to welcome their feedback to make PUBG MOBILE the best game ever!”, it added.
PUBG, which completed one year of its launch earlier this month, has helped revive the gaming industry in India.
