FAU-G, a mobile game developed by an Indian studio as an alternative to PUBG Mobile, has been teased again in the country. The new teaser was shared by a popular Bollywood star, Akshay Kumar, which revealed certain brawling mechanics that might be in the game.
Today we celebrate the victory of good over evil, and what better day to celebrate our Fearless and United Guards, our FAU-G!

For those unaware, FAU-G was announced over a month ago after the Indian government had banned PUBG Mobile alongside 118 other Chinese applications. This arrives due to rising political tensions between India and China, as well as, military clashes between the Indo-China borders. These clashes have led to anti Chinese sentiments in the region, which inspired the local game studio nCore Games to develop the new game.

According to a Gadgets360 report, Akshay Kumar has also been brought in to promote the video game, which will be based around the Galwan Valley skirmishes between India and China. In the short 1 minute video, we can see the characters from the game fighting in close quarters battles with hand to hand combat. So, we might see certain melee brawling mechanics within the game.
Unfortunately, an official launch date of the game is still unavailable, with the teaser ending with “coming soon.” With FAU-G, nCore Games is clearly tapping on the patriotism of Indians and the growing anti China sentiments as well. So stay tuned for more updates regarding the game and its release.
