Jonathan Jude Amaral tweets his concerns about the Krafton-backed game’s future in India. His tweet also calls out Krafton to respond to the issue in order to bring clarity to the situation.

It is evident that Krafton had not responded to the matter, as they have released a couple of official statements. While the latter statement has clarified the allegations related to security issues to some extent, the game’s comeback and availability in stores are still in question.

Jonathan insisted on an update on BGMI’s re-arrival as fans have been longing for it. His tweet reads, “As a BGMI esports athlete, I’m really concerned about the future of this game. I really want the people at Krafton to provide us with any update about this uncertainty. What’s next for all of us is a big question. #bgmi.”

The tweet not only complains about Krafton’s manque of transparency, but it also requests information about the future of Battlegrounds Mobile India esports in India. Earlier, Ghatak also called out Krafton to be answerable about the game’s sudden suspension. Following that, Krafton released a statement that they are working with the concerned authorities and urged the fans to hear from them. Industry experts also call out in favour of the execution of proper regulations and guidelines to avoid such sudden bans.

As of now, there is no official statement surrounding the game’s unban. Players have been hoping for a positive outcome considering Krafton’s second statement, but it’s still unclear whether the game will make it back or not.
