Last week, Krafton officially teased the comeback of BGMI to India after the popular battle royale game was banned by the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY) in response to requests from the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) back in July 2022.

Now, the game has finally made its return to the Google Play Store with the announcement coming from the official Twitter handle of Battlegrounds Mobile India. Interestingly, the game is not visible to many users who are searching for it directly on the Play Store. However, if you visit the official page, you will easily be directed to the Play Store download page.

The game is still on the 2.1.0 version which was released back in July 2022, and the servers are not live yet, however, it is likely that Krafton will push the new patch as soon as the servers go live.

It is crucial to acknowledge that Krafton will face careful monitoring by the Indian government, ensuring the game’s compliance with the law and proposed requirements for a duration of three months. If the government finds the game in violation of any of the proposed conditions, a ban is likely to follow. Let’s take a look at what these conditions are.

Throughout this evaluation period, officials from the Ministry of Home Affairs will thoroughly examine and reassess the app to ensure its adherence to privacy and security regulations established by the Indian government, with a focus on safeguarding the welfare of its citizens. Any failure by Krafton to comply with these regulations may potentially result in another ban on BGMI.

According to the report, BGMI will introduce an in-game timer to limit players from surpassing the designated playtime. Additionally, the game’s color scheme will reportedly be altered to incorporate yellow and green blood, similar to the version presently available in China (Peacekeeper Elite). Initially, players were provided the option to change the blood color to green or blue during the game’s launch as a substitute for PUBG Mobile India. However, it appears that a new default color will be implemented instead of red.
