Ban status of Free Fire in India

As of this writing, Free Fire remains banned in India, with hardly any developments regarding a potential change in the situation. It also seems that the developers have moved on as they have rebranded their social media pages to Free Fire MAX India (which is a version that is currently available in the country).

The ban will continue to be in effect unless the Indian government decides to revoke it, which seems unlikely at the moment. Nonetheless, the servers are still open and users have been able to access them.

Furthermore, the Singapore government has approached the Indian government in an effort to find out the actual reasons for banning the popular game.

However, these are just speculations and must be taken with a pinch of salt. With the MAX version not being named in the list of suspended apps, individuals can continue to enjoy it in India and have a look at all the events being added by developers.

A MAX-exclusive top-up event was recently introduced, providing a reward for players who buy a particular number of diamonds in the game.
