New Delhi, April 30: Amid rumours around PUBG Mobile’s comeback in India, a short teaser video of PUBG Mobile India showed up on the Indian YouTube channel but it has now been taken down. This teaser did not reveal any release date or an approximate time frame, GSMArena reported on Friday.

“However, the fact that the video showed up is a strong indication of its own that the game will soon be released in the country again,” the report said.

PUBG’s developer, recently, announced the pre-registration for a new battle royale game, called New State, on the Google Play store.
