It seems like that FAU-G will be the direct replacement for PUBG Mobile as the popular mobile battle royale game was just banned. We can see that the name FAU-G also has a great resemblance to PUB-G.

However, Vishal Gondal, the co-founder of NCore Games, confirmed that the ben of PUBG Mobile was just a coincidence and the game was developed from May-June 2020.

“For youngsters in India, gaming is becoming an important form of entertainment. With FAU-G, I’m hoping that as they play the game they will learn about the sacrifices of our soldiers and also contribute to the families of the martyrs; and with this each one of us has the ability to support PM Modi’s vision of Atma Nirbhar ”, Akshay Kumar says.

Players will be able to learn about the sacrifices of Indian soldiers throughout the missions of the game. The first episode of the game will be based on the event on Galwan River. 20% revenue of the game will be given to Bharat Ke Veer Trust (India’s Brave Forces Trust), a fund raised by the Ministry of Home Affairs, Government of India.

The game is expected to be coming out in October but the exact date hasn't been revealed by yet. You can check out the trailer of FAU-G below.
