How to Play PUBG Mobile in India in 2025

PUBG Mobile revolutionized gaming culture in India by mainstreaming mobile gaming and introducing a young generation to esports and online multiplayer games. It also played a key role in fostering social interaction, teamwork, and digital infrastructure. However, in 2020, the game was banned in India due to national security concerns, leading to the rise of BGMI as its replacement.


Despite this, many players still prefer PUBG Mobile over BGMI, citing reasons such as familiar gameplay, features, and the global server access that allowed them to compete internationally. Additionally, PUBG’s robust community, custom mods, and experiences are aspects that BGMI currently lacks.

If you're someone from India longing to relive those PUBG moments and revisit your old account and inventory, this post will guide you through everything from installing the game to running it.


Let's Play PUBG Mobile in India

Let's start with its installation and then learn the process of playing it.

  1. First, download the PUBG Mobile APK file from a third-party app store like APKPURE or APKMIRROR.
  2. After that, you need to enable "Unknown Sources" in your device's Settings or Developer Options.
  3. Now, locate the PUBG Mobile APK file wherever it is stored.
  4. Once you find it, tap on it and click Install.
  5. The installation process will be completed shortly, and PUBG Mobile will be installed on your device.

Now it's time to run it

As we all know, PUBG Mobile is banned in India and can't be installed and played directly. However, we've successfully installed it on our device, and now we just need to run it. Whenever we open PUBG Mobile, we often encounter issues like network errors, restricted area, or login failure. To address this, we'll use a VPN.


A VPN allows you to access geo-restricted content. So, it's obvious we can use it to play PUBG in India. So, let's run it without further ado:

  1. First, install a free or paid VPN app, such as Quick VPN or Power VPN.
  2. Then, select a country in the VPN where PUBG Mobile is not banned.
  3. Then connect to a server in that country.
  4. After a successful connection is established, launch PUBG Mobile without closing the VPN app.
  5. You will find that your PUBG Mobile has opened without any errors and is ready to start a match.

That's it! You'll now be able to access your old PUBG account and feel nostalgic for your old inventory and career.
