Battlegrounds Mobile India will feature exclusive outfits and events tailored to the needs of local users. The announcement by Krafton read that it will be working with its partners to bring in content regularly.

The South Korean organization is working on various in-game events and content, like limited edition outfits, to commemorate the game’s release.

This isn’t the case with the global version of the game, though it also offers users various outfits and events.


#3 - Data storage and security

As per a blog by Krafton, the company will be utilizing Microsoft Azure to ensure data protection and security at every stage. Moreover, the players’ personal data will be stored on servers located in India and Singapore.

Last year, the PUBG Mobile global version was blocked in India by the Ministry of Electronics and Information technology due to security concerns, so there are no servers or data to discuss.


#4 - Age restriction
