PUBG Mobile Ban lifted in Nepal: The Nepal Supreme Court has lifted the ban on the popular battle royale game, PUBG (PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds) according to a report by The Himalayan Times. According to the report, the court was petitioned by several lawyers against the block that was administered on the game earlier this month.
The court in its ruling stated that the ban impacts the freedom of Nepal’s residents and hence should not stay in place. To recall, the ban on the game was implemented by Nepali authorities after the nation’s federal investigation agency asked the Nepal Telecommunications Authority (NTA) to do so. The NTA then contacted all of the country’s ISPs and mobile service providers to ensure the block on PUBG.
PUBG Mobile is also banned in China, which is yet to approve newer gaming titles. UAE is also debating on whether the game should be banned, after an outcry by concerned parents.

PUBG Mobile is a battle royale game in which a total of 100 players land on a battlefield and with the help of their gathering skills and survival instincts fend off and kill to win. To make the gameplay more interesting and fun the safe zone circle in which players will stay safe and not suffer any damage keeps on getting smaller. To win the hypothetical chicken dinner the players have to try and become the last man standing.
