Will there be a BGMI 2.3 update? Possible outcomes explored

It's been around three months since BGMI was blocked in India under Section 69A of the IT Act. Since then, fans of the game have been searching the internet looking for positive news regarding the game’s comeback in the nation.

With the PUBG Mobile 2.3 update slated for release next month and the beta version already available, many users have begun to wonder if the 2.3 update will be made available for the Indian version. The possibility of this happening is slim, given that there has been no 2.2 update so far. The new Royale Pass is yet to be released in the Indian variant as well.

The following section looks at the possibility of the BGMI 2.3 update being released.

Considering that the BGMI has been blocked in India, it is doubtful that players will be able to enjoy the 2.3 update next month. The situation likely won't change unless there's news regarding the game’s comeback, and there haven't been any announcements about it so far.

Users should also note that any release dates for the BGMI 2.3 update on the internet are false. Fans will have to continue playing the game with the existing features, since there won't be any new additions to the game in the near future.

At this point, the only thing that players can do is cross their fingers and hope that the game will eventually make a comeback. Despite a lot of speculation, no official announcements have been made by Krafton about the 2.3 update.
