“PUBG Corporation fully understands and respects the measures taken by the government as the privacy and security of player data is a top priority for the company. It hopes to work hand-in-hand with the Indian government to find a solution that will allow gamers to once again drop into the battlegrounds while being fully compliant with Indian laws and regulations,” the gaming company said.
The Centre banned 118 more Chinese mobile applications last week over concerns regarding “security, surveillance and data privacy”.
“The compilation of these data, it's mining, and profiling by elements hostile to national security and defense of India, which ultimately impinges upon the sovereignty and integrity of India, is a matter of very deep and immediate concern which requires emergency measures,” the Centre said in the statement.

In light of recent developments, PUBG Corporation has made the decision to no longer authorize the PUBG Mobile franchise to Tencent Games in India.

Following the PUBG ban in India, PUBG Corporation (behind the popular game) that comes under South Korea's Bluehole has finally given out an official word suggesting that is looking into the whole ban issue and PUBG Mobile won't be handled by Tencent Games in India and all its publishing responsibilities will now be controlled by PUBG Corporation in the country. This means that if PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds won't be associated with China's Tencent Games and is entirely controlled by PUBG Corporation, it can soon be unbanned in India as it won't be associated with China in any way.
