In addition to changing the name, PUBG Corporation has also agreed to make various adjustments to the content in the game.
Some of them include adjustments to the appearance of game characters that are more family-friendly.
The location of the war was changed to a simulated training ground, as well as the loss of the effect of blood splatter on characters who were hit by gunfire.
This change was made because PUBG Mobile is considered by the Indian government to have a bad impact on teenagers in India.
