Popular battle royale game PUBG Mobile has almost 600 million subscribers globally. However, PUBG Corporation has decided to not take cheating via hacks lightly. In a massive crackdown on cheaters, banned 12,17,342 accounts.
PUBG Mobile wrote on Twitter, “Know the Ban, Fear the Ban. From January 8th-14th, 1,217,342 accounts have been permanently suspended from accessing our game. The majority of causes were: Modification of Character Model, Auto-Aim Hacks and X-Ray Vision.”
The PUBG mobile also revealed the ranks of the hackers. “38% of the hackers were on Bronze, 11% were Gold, 9% were Platinum, 12% were Diamond, 10% were Crown, 10% were Ace, and 3% were Conquerer,” said a report by Zee Business.
All the PUBG Mobile players are requested to stop resorting to these techniques to avoid suspension. Meanwhile, PUBG Mobile India fans have been left frustrated with multiple reports claiming that the battle royale game will not be launched anytime soon in the country.
If reports are to be believed, a formal discussion between PUBG/ Krafton and the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY) is still awaited. The immensely popular PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds (PUBG) Mobile app was among the 118 Chinese apps that the Indian government banned in September 2019 over national security concerns.
To get the ban lifted, PUBG Corp made the decision to no longer authorise the PUBG Mobile franchise to China-based Tencent Games in India. Here’s another good news for those waiting for the FAUG Mobile launch. The game will be released on 26 January, 2021.
As earlier announced after PUBG’s ban in India, the opening act of the game is placed in the backdrop of Indian forces fighting against the PLA troops in Ladakh.
