New Delhi: Free Fire India, one of the top battle royale games that the Indian government banned in February of last year owing to worries about national security, will be available starting on September 5, according to an announcement made on Thursday by Singaporean online game creator Garena.

According to a statement from the company, Yotta Infrastructure's cloud hosting infrastructure in the nation will support the Free Fire India game by storing and safeguarding user data.

Earlier, banned for more than a year, Battlegrounds Mobile India (BGMI), the popular battle royale game that enthralled the country's gaming community, made a comeback at May-end this year.

Yotta, a Hiranandani Group company, will provide the local cloud hosting and storage infrastructure for Free Fire India.

Free Fire India will offer features and content specifically developed for Indian users, as well as a range of features designed to promote safe, healthy and fun gameplay, said Garena.

"Garena's launch of Free Fire India and commitment to localising and developing the esports ecosystem locally is a testament to the vibrancy of the mobile games and esports space in India, and to India's potential for global leadership in this area,” said H.E. Simon Wong, High Commissioner of Singapore to India.

Garena also announced cricket icon MS Dhoni as the new brand ambassador for Free Fire India.

"We look forward to providing an engaging and highly localised experience for Indian users. The Free Fire India Esports Championships is our first step in building out our platform of esports events and activities in the coming months,” said Gang Ye, Co-founder of Garena, a wholly-owned business unit of the publicly-listed Sea Limited.
