According to the Insiders, ‘the proposed meeting will decide if permission to Relaunch can be granted to PUBG or not’. The source further added that ‘In the current circumstances it will not be easy for the game to relaunch themselves before Jan-Feb next year and that too will depend on the stance of the government’.
