New Delhi: Even though the nail-biting wait for PUBG India’s re-entry doesn’t seem to be ending anytime soon, rival desi’s FAU-G game is slowly approaching the game’s launch and has received a great response from Indian players.
Although the company is not yet ready to reveal any official FAU-G release date, a report from InsideSport said the game is set to be released in December.
nCore, the company behind PUBG’s rival FAU-G, has already started pre-registration on the Google Play Store, indicating that the launch is imminent. nCore has said that it has obtained more than 1 million pre-registrations in just 24 hours from opening for pre-registration.

nCore opened FAU-G’s pre-registration on the Google Play Store on November 30. FAU-G pre-registration for Android is available, although players cannot download it yet. Also, there is no information on whether or not the game is coming to Apple’s App Store soon.
Once users sign in for pre-registration, they will be notified when the game is available to download.
On the auspicious occasion of Gurupurab, we are starting pre-registrations for FAU-G: Fearless And United Guards.

The multiplayer game titled ‘FAU-G: Fearless and United Guards’ aims to provide an Indian alternative to PUBG Mobile which has recently been banned in India along with 117 more apps.
The government banned the multiplayer action game PUBG on September 2 and withdrew from both the Google Play Store and the Apple App Store in India following the directive of the Indian government.
Meanwhile, millions of Indians are going through difficult phase, waiting for the long awaited launch of PUBG Mobile India. Although various media reports have claimed that PUBG will be released in the first week of December, it seems highly unlikely as the Center has yet to give PUBG Corporation permission to launch the game in the Indian market.
Media reports said that the new version of PUBG Mobile India will have a prize pool of Rs 6 crore with a minimum wage ranging from 40,000 to Rs 2 Lakh for tier 1 teams.
Interestingly, the APK version of PUBG Mobile India was released last week of November on the company’s official website for a couple of hours. The APK version was available for download, but players had a hard time downloading it. An APK version was also released for some Android users.
