Ever since Battlegrounds Mobile India was announced, people have been busy studying similarities with PUBG Mobile. But Krafton India executives have been quite involved in trying to undo the comparisons or similarities that people make. But it seems that the company itself has accepted that Battlegrounds Mobile India is similar or identical to PUBG Mobile.

This dedication is all about bringing amazing content to Battlegrounds Mobile India and providing an unparalleled battle royale experience for our players. While not a direct admission, the reference to PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds is clear with the mention of a XNUMX game, as it was the only Krafton or Bluehole game at the time. Kim goes on to say that it's based on that experience, which can only mean that Battlegrounds Mobile India is taking over the game.While that may not be a huge drawback in the grand scheme of things, it is significant in that it is the closest Krafton has come to accepting that Battlegrounds Mobile India is essentially a revamped PUBG Mobile.This, while Krafton's domestic executives have tried to empower influencers and streamers to avoid mentioning the PUBG Mobile name, seems rather incomplete and also superfluous.This can only be due to the fear that Being associated with PUBG Mobile can lead to similar misfortunes for Battlegrounds Mobile India.
