Garena Free Fire Game relaunches in India a year after ban

Garena was banned in India a year and a half ago when several Chinese apps were banned from the market. Even though Garena was built by a Singapore giant, it was pooled in since the app, according to the IT and electronics ministry was responsible for obtaining several critical permissions in this regard. Singapore-based giant Forrest Li has relaunched Garena Free Fire and it is going to be available to people from the 5th of September which means Garena relaunches Free Fire. India was a major hub for Garena Free Fire and players were deeply disappointed by their decisions.

It has partnered with Yotta, the data service unit of Indian property billionaire Niranjan Hiranandani of the Hiranandani group. Through Yotta, you will be able to store the data of the Indian users’ data specifically on local servers.

 By connecting to the Indian customer base, Sea’s slowing down business could again gain momentum. With lower-than-expected profit returns, investors were deeply disappointed and this decision could be a game-turner for them. Garena profits help fund the e-commerce market competition with Ali Baba and Lazada growing into a digital financial service giant.

The e-commerce operations of Sea are still halted and business is not as usual. Even though they are bringing back Free Fire Garena, there are no indications of bringing the e-commerce platform back to India. They had shut down Shopee, a month after Free Fire Garena was closed down from the market.

The game is bringing several new features to support the needs of the Indian market.

1. Parental supervision is one reason why the game was feared by many parents previously. But now parents will be able to supervise and set timers for the child within the game.
2. Several gameplay restrictions and limitations are being put in place to ensure people know the time limits they want to use when playing the game.
3. The take-a-break reminders are also put in place and people playing the game can use it diligently.
4. They impose playtime limits on the game.
5. Spending limits on the game will be monitored and people will be notified about the game.
6. Age limits are being put in place to ensure different age groups are not abusing their powers.
7. Toxicity reminders are also going to be taken seriously by the platform hereon.

They are not leaving any stone unturned and have used the Dhoni factor as well. MS Dhoni has pulled in as the brand ambassador apart from many other players like Sunil Chettri (Football), Rahul Chaudhari (Kabbadi), Saina Nehwal (Badminton) and even Leander Paes (Tennis). Dhoni will be a playable character and will adorn the role of Thala.

According to Mr. Gang, co-founder of Garena, they are positive to gain back the same traction and even more from the game this time. They believe in Yotta’s expertise and their ability to secure the Indian data very well and on behalf of the whole team look forward to building a firm relationship with India with this exquisite event wherein Garena relaunches Free Fire.
