Talking about PUBG is not the same as mentioning titles like Fortnite or Apex Legends. Despite that, PUBG is one of the most popular battle royale games today. The momentum of this title is great, since it has been on the market for several years as one of the most played games, especially when it comes to gathering people to try to win a game of survival
The problem with titles like this, which are successful, is the addiction they create.Many parents and parents are concerned about what these games produce in the youngest. So much is the concern that in some countries like Nepal they have decided to ban the game. PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds (PUBG) contains violent content and has a negative impact on children. This is how they clarify it in Nepal and assure that this is the reason that has led them to ban the game.
Nepal bans all types of PUBG streaming
The NTA (Department in charge of Telecommunications in Nepal) ban has told Reuters that PUBG causes addiction in children and adolescents The ban is effective from this week and the request comes as a result of the large number of complaints that have reached this body. The NTA has asked all internet providers in the country, mobile phone operators and network providers to block all streaming of the game from this week onwards.
PUBG is a game created by the South Korean firm Bluehole Inc. It is a survival game where players face off in matches of 100 people on an island. The objective is to win the match and the last man standing (or team) will win the match. The game was launched in 2017 and since then it has not stopped gaining fans all over the globe.
In Nepal they say the game is making young people to put aside their studies and focus on this title, which also prints very aggressive behaviors in them. A ban like this can mitigate the effect of this title on society, but we know that it will still be easy to use a VPN to follow games of this title or even play from mobile phones or computers. We cannot forget that PUBG Mobile has already added millions of players since its launch, being one of the most played titles on Android and iPhone today.Do you think the title should be banned in more countries?
