This move is dubbed as an indigenous response to the ban of the recently banned game-PUBG and other 117 apps . The apps were said to have been “engaged in activities which were prejudicial to sovereignty and integrity of India, defense of India, the security of the state and public order”.
The first level is set in Galwan Valley, as revealed by Vishal Gondal.
FAU-G was always in the pipeline; PUBG ban was co-incidental –says Vishal Gondal
It’s said that the game was originally designed as part of Prime Minister’s campaign of Atmanirbharta(self-reliance).
The game is rumored to be released within mid-October-end October.
