Battlegrounds Mobile India is opened for Early Access. However, there is no update on when the game will be officially launched or when it will be out for iOS platform. Considering that, many players look for explanations and answers online. Well, Tanmay ‘Sc0ut’ Singh might just have them for you.

Before delving into why, here are some facts about the Early Access of Battlegrounds Mobile India. The game has had over 20 million pre-registrations in just a matter of two weeks. Pre-registration for the game started on May 18, and had 76 lakh pre-registrations in a day.

After the Early Access was released, it crossed 5 Million downloads. BGMI has lessened the in-game violence and mature content that PUBG Mobile had. It also implemented new rules of conduct for players.

Krafton is offering a special gift for every single player who is downloading and registering in BGMI early access. Players who download the game get [1x SUPPLY CRATE COUPON] + [2x EXP Card] + [2x BP Card] via in-game mail.

Battlegrounds Mobile India faces delay

In a recent stream, Tanmay Singh aka Scout shared a probable reason for this delay. He said “Issues regarding the game are going through a fix right now. Mainly, the developers are working on the feature that allows you to play against players from foreign countries while you’re still playing BGMI. Otherwise, the Esports scenario in India will be dead soon.”

The Korean version of PUBG Mobile allowed players to share a lobby with those using the global version of the game. This feature helped many during the ban of PUBG Mobile’s Global Version in India as players used to play the game in the Korean version instead that was still accessible. However, due to data security concerns, this feature is not available in BGMI as of now. BGMI users can’t play with players from any other version of the game.

Regarding iOS Version release, Scout shared that “iOS version will come as soon as the public server goes live.”
