The Deathmatch mode is confirmed to arrive soon on FAUG.
The game was released on January 26 to fill the void left by the ban of PUBG Mobile in India.
FAUG is finally getting an important update that will make it a bit closer to being a true PUBG Mobile alternative. As promised, nCore Games has confirmed the Deathmatch Mode will be rolled out soon to allow multiplayer battles in the game. The deathmatch playing strategy was introduced in PUBG Mobile back in 2019, giving a new way of playing in a highly-aggressive environment with time restrictions. It became to be the most popular multiplayer mode in the game, inspiring other similar games to adopt this. With the Deathmatch Mode, FAUG may increase its appeal to the users who have slammed the homegrown mobile game
The announcement of the game was made initially by the Bollywood actor Akshay Kumar via his Twitter handle. The game was expected to launch in October 2020 but managed to make its way in January 2021. For now, the game is available only on the Android platform and there is no news for its availability on iOS.
The parent company nCore Games has stated that FAUG is said to get a 5v5 Team Deathmatch, Battle Royale, and more modes that will be added soon. No news on the update has been announced so far.
FAUG comes with a single-person campaign mode and is based on the feud between Indian and Chinese soldiers, based in Galwan Valley. Unlike its counterpart, the game does not get Battle Royale Game Mode.

Indian game developer nCore Games finally released the much-awaited FAUG game for download on Android while the iOS version will come out at a later stage. Set in the backdrop of the infamous Galwan Valley attack and riding on a wave of anti-China sentiments, FAUG was announced as an Indian-made title celebrating the heroics of the Indian army. The name FAUG was being considered as an Indian take on PUBG Mobile after the latter was banned in the country. However, nCore had clarified in an earlier interview that the developer has no intention of making a clone to the popular battle royale game. Now, on 26th January, I finally got my hands on the game, and here are my first impressions of the game mechanics, storyline, and what the future of FAUG looks like.
