Battlegrounds Mobile India (BGMI), the highly anticipated game, has generated immense excitement among gamers in India. However, since the announcement of its unblocking by Krafton after a hiatus of nine and a half months, players have been eagerly awaiting the servers to go live. As of 23rd May 2023, the BGMI servers remain offline, leaving fans eagerly anticipating the game’s return. In this article, we will explore the current server status and provide insights into the upcoming developments.
BGMI Server Unavailability: What Players Need to Know
As the BGMI servers continue to be offline, players are unable to access the game. Even the auto-login feature has been disabled temporarily, displaying a message upon launch that promises an improved gaming experience. The message reads, “Hello BGMI Fan! BGMI servers will be unavailable for a while to come up with a better and bigger experience. While we are working to give you a seamless experience, your account will be safe, and your progress till now will be retained. We will keep you informed of further developments and the release date through our social media platforms.”
Attempting to log in manually leads to another pop-up message confirming the servers’ unavailability. The message states, “Server is not online yet. Please check the official news for information regarding availability. Thank you for your understanding.”
As of now, there has been no change in the server status, and players will have to wait patiently for Battlegrounds Mobile India’s return on both Google Play and the Apple App Store.

BGMI’s Return Announcement and Release Date
Krafton, the South Korean developer and publisher of BGMI, made the eagerly awaited announcement about the game’s return through its social media channels. However, they have remained tight-lipped about the exact release date on virtual application stores.
As of now, no official confirmations or announcements have been made by Krafton regarding the game’s return. Speculations and rumors surrounding the official unban date have also been scarce. Therefore, it is crucial for players to stay connected with Krafton’s social media handles for the latest updates on Battlegrounds Mobile India’s unban date.
BGMI’s Conditional Return
The return of Battlegrounds Mobile India is imminent, and it will be introduced with certain conditions imposed by the Government of India’s Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY). This initial phase will serve as a three-month trial approval, during which the government will closely monitor the game’s operations.
Rajeev Chandrasekhar, the Union Minister of State for Entrepreneurship, Skill Development, Electronics & Technology, revealed that the three-month period will determine whether the game can make a permanent comeback.
During this trial phase, players can expect new content in the game, including features from the global variant, PUBG Mobile. However, it is worth noting that Battlegrounds Mobile India may undergo certain censorship measures to address concerns regarding user harm and addiction. Reports also suggest that the game might witness a reduction in gore and blood following its unban.
