Garena Free Fire and Free Fire Max have suddenly been removed from the App Store and Play Store in India. Without any official announcement of the ban by India's government, the game was just removed. Even though the developers said that they are investigating what happened, not much information about this case has been released as of right now.
Garena Free Fire Removed from App Store and Play Store in India with Reasons Unknown
On February 12 suddenly, the immensely famous battle royale games Free Fire with its enhanced version - Free Fire Max was removed from the App Store and Play Store. However, the Max version of the game is still available in the Google Play store at the time of writing this article.
Garena has yet to reveal the reason for this happening. This removal has left all the players of the game in utter confusion and nervousness. Moreover, the rumours stating that the game has been banned are making it even more difficult for us. Nevertheless, even though the game has been taken away from the app and Play Store, the players who are having the game installed on their devices can enjoy the game regardless of the removal.
Previously, both the games went missing from the Apple App Store and the players who already had the game installed started facing problems such as login issues and crashes. Some Free Fire players believe that this is a glitch and some believe that the game is banned on IOS. However, there has been no official confirmation so it is hard to guess why such a thing took place.
That said, let's not jump to conclusions without any official announcement by either the Indian government or Garena itself. Make sure to stay tuned with us for future updates on this situation.
