BGMI, the popular battle royale game, has finally made its return to India after being banned for nearly a year. The game is now available on both iOS and Android smartphones. Developer Krafton has implemented restrictions on playing the game, including daily time limits. This latest update to the game brings a new map based on a small resort island located in a tropical zone, along with new in-game events and updates to classic maps in the game.
Krafton announced the relaunch of BGMI in India two days after it allowed Android users to preload the game in advance. While both iOS and Android users can now download the game from the App Store and Play Store, playability will be staggered and users will be able to login in phases within 48 hours.
To promote a healthy gameplay environment, BGMI will now restrict playtime for users in India based on their age. Minors playing the game will be limited to three hours a day, while users above the age of 18 can play for up to six hours. Daily spending for gamers under the age of 18 will also be limited, and parental verification will remain in place, according to the publisher.
The latest update to BGMI features the smallest map in the game to date, Nusa, which can be downloaded via the Google Play store and App Store. Nusa is set in a tropical environment and features ziplines, a Super Recall feature, a tactical crossbow, and a two-seater off-road all-terrain vehicle. Each match in Nusa will last eight minutes, according to Krafton.
The game has been granted a three-month “trial approval” by the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY) after Krafton addressed and complied with issues of server locations and data security. MoS IT Rajeev Chandrasekhar announced earlier this month that the government will monitor these issues, along with concerns related to gamer addiction and user harm over the next three months during the “trial” period.
