PUBG Mobile Will Only Let You Play Maximum Of 6 Hour Per Day To Fight Addiction In India

It is no doubt that Players Unknown Battlegrounds is becoming one of the most talked about games in India, and for all the wrong reasons recently.

Battling allegations of addiction and trying to overcome bans imposed on it, PUBG Mobile is testing a maximum 6 hour per day gaming limit for users in India.

PUBG Mobile has taken India by storm. Built by a 37-year-old graphic designer, PUBG's mobile version of the game is giving parents nervous anxiety, with reports of PUBG addiction death and game ban and arrests running rampant. But at the same time, PUBG Mobile tournaments are giving away as much as Rs 30 lakh to its winners -- Team SOUL.

But now reports are emerging that PUBG Mobile is inflicting a self-limit on maximum gameplay per day -- 6 hours.

According to The Next Web report, PUBG Mobile is sending out health-related messages to players on their smartphones, telling them to take a break from gaming, and not allowing them to play more than 6 hours per day.

Quite a few PUBG Mobile players (like the one quoted in the tweet above) have confirmed getting the health-related pop-up in game, forcing them to shut down the game after 6 hours of gameplay.

The game also seems to be asking players if they're 18 years or older, suggesting maybe the PUBG Mobile daily limit might be for even fewer hours for younger gamers.

There is no official word from PUBG Mobile on this health-reminder based daily gameplay limit yet, and we have reached out to PUBG Mobile for an official statement in this regard.
