Battlegrounds Mobile India (BGMI) is coming back to the Indian market 10 months after its ban under Information Technology Act 2000 provisions. The announcement arrived on May 19, 2023, when Krafton took to the title's official social media handles and urged fans to turn on their notifications as their favorite game will return soon.
However, much to the chagrin of fans, the BGMI servers went offline shortly thereafter, and they remain in that state for the time being. In the meantime, Krafton has rolled out a much-anticipated update for the game on the Google Play Store, creating a massive buzz in the Indian mobile gaming community.
Everything to know about new BGMI update that comes months after ban
A few hours ago, Krafton decided to release a Battlegrounds Mobile India update for Android users across the country. The update will see the game change its version to 2.5 and comes with a variable size depending on the user's device.
You can follow these easy steps to install/update the game:
Step 1: Visit Google Play Store and tap on the Search Icon.
Step 2: Search for Battlegrounds Mobile India.
Step 3: Click on the game from the list of search results.
Step 4: Click on the Update/Install button to initiate the installation process.
Step 5: Review all the details shown on the application’s Play Store page.
Step 6: Following a successful installation/update, click on the Play button to launch the Battlegrounds Mobile India application.
Additionally, after installing the new update, you will have to choose and download your preferred resource pack. While the normal resource pack is 640.1 MB in size, the HD resource pack is 1079.8 MB in size.
However, it should be noted that players still cannot play BGMI as the in-game servers will not be online before May 29, 2023. Once the servers are online, players can expect to get their hands on four permanent outfits (available in different in-game events), as shown on the Play Store page.
BGMI relaunch information for iOS users
New players and those using iOS devices cannot download Battlegrounds Mobile India in advance. They can only do so starting May 29, 2023, after the in-game servers go online.
Apple users are recommended to wait for a couple of days and not resort to any unfair means of downloading the game, as their accounts would have a high chance of getting banned.
