Bollywood actor Akshay Kumar unveiled the FAU-G game anthem on Sunday and its release date, prompting a wide range of reactions online. The creation of the game was first announced when the Indian government banned the popular mobile game PUBG or PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds in September 2020, shortly after border tensions with China escalated.
According to the Instagram post, FAU-G, which is based on the soldiers of the Indian Army, will be released on January 26.
A short video of the game shows a scenario set in Ladakh where Indian soldiers engage enemy troops. Unlike PUBG which was a battle royale, FAU-G will have episodes or missions.
“Whether it is a problem within the country or on the border … these Bharat Ke Veer always stand firm. They are our Fearless United Guards, our FAU-G! Witness the anthem, “wrote the actor while sharing the video.
