Earlier in May, a prominent Indian PUBG Mobile Lite YouTuber named Gaming Duniya had asked Krafton to bring back this streamlined title via a new version:

Gaming Duniya's tweet about BGMI Lite

As of now, Krafton has not announced anything regarding its availability. Players presently have no other choice but to wait for an official statement from the developer regarding the release of Battlegrounds Mobile India Lite.

The prominent caster, Ketan Patel, otherwise known as K18, has also made a statement regarding BGMI Lite in one of his videos:

"Players need to stop expecting the BGMI Lite version as it is not coming any time soon."

Users can find it in the video above from 7:47 to 8:00.

Playing BGMI on low-end devices

Requirements stated in the Support section of the game (Image via BGMI)

On the official support page of BGMI, the developer has mentioned the following as the minimum requirements to play the game on Android devices:

• Version – Android 4.3 or Higher
• GPU – Adreno (TM) 306 or Higher
• RAM – Min 1.5 GB RAM

This is pretty low compared to most of the other titles of the battle royale genre. Hence, users with low-end devices can try it out; however, smooth gameplay isn't guaranteed.

On top of this, using the Lightweight Installation Function, players can now only select the resources they want to download in BGMI rather than download all the resources at once. This has led to a drastic decrease in file size and as a result, players who were previously unable to play the game due to limited storage space can now do so.

Users should also note that there is only one version of PUBG Mobile Lite, as opposed to PUBG Mobile, which has numerous regional variants.
