Is FAUG a battle royale game?

Yes, FAU-G is a battle royale game that looks to pay tribute to the heroes of India’s armed forces. The video game has been touted by many as the next major battle royale in India after the suspension of PUBG Mobile in the country. Interestingly, the video game was announced by the developers soon after the exit of PUBG India.

PUBG Mobile was one of the 118 Chinese-linked mobile applications that were suspended by the Indian government in September 2020 due to security and privacy concerns. Ever since then, PUBG Mobile developers have been striving to make a comeback in India due to its massive popularity and player base in the country.

PUBG India had recently dropped a game teaser suggesting that the game will finally make a comeback in India; however, there is no information on an official release date as of yet.

Regardless of whether PUBG India returns to the Indian market, the suspension has allowed other gaming studios to capitalize on the growth of mobile games in the country. FAU-G is one such title that looks to thrill the hardcore battle royale fans when it releases on January 26.
