FAU-G trailer offers a look at fighting mechanics used in the Indian alternative to PUBG

FAU-G, an Indian alternative to the popular battle royale game PUBG, has yet to be released in the country. However, without providing any details about the game’s debut, Bollywood actor Akshay Kumar has released his teaser. The game has been developed by Bengaluru-based nCore Games, in collaboration with Kumar. It was announced last month, shortly after the government banned PUBG Mobile in the country. FAU-G, also known as Fearless and United Guards, was scheduled to be released later this month.

The one-minute teaser video gives us an idea of ​​the first level of FAU-G that will be based on the Galwan Valley skirmishes between India and China. It shows characters using fighter mechanics to fight enemies.

Akshay Kumar released the teaser on Sunday, marking Dussehra’s occasion. The teaser video does not provide any details on FAU-G’s release and ends with a “coming soon” output.

NCore co-founder Vishal Gondal stated last month that FAU-G is due out later this month. The game was announced just a couple of days after the government banned PUBG Mobile and PUBG Mobile Lite in the country. However, Gondal said it was in the works for a few months. The game also aims to reach 20 million users in a year.

Gondal’s NCore has pledged to give 20 percent of FAU-G’s net proceeds to the Bharat Ke Veer government fundraising program. The game was also aimed at tapping into anti-China sentiment and patriotism in the country.
