While PUBG Mobile is can no longer be found on the Google Play Store in India, other mobile games are benefiting from the ban and getting more popular, like Free Fire.
Since June 2020, the country has banned more than 200 Chinese apps including the Chinese video-sharing app TikTok. Since then, there have been multiple Indian alternatives created to replace TikTok.
