After PUBG Ban in India, Krafton made a strong comeback with the rollout of Battlegrounds Mobile India (BGMI). Being one of the best battle royale games, it is necessary for BGMI to roll out regular updates and new features to keep the gamers hooked. Keeping that need in mind, BGMI has partnered with ‘Riot Games' to offer in-game content based on Arcane, its new series.

Arcane made its first appearance on Krafton Video in China, followed by a global launch via Netflix in November. The series revolves around the League of Legends universe and is based on the origin story of two league champions, namely utopian Piltover and the underground of Zaun.

As per the collaboration between BGMI and Riot Games, characters, items, locations, and game modes based on Arcane will be introduced in BGMI. The elements will be a part of the BGMI 1.7 update, which is slated to launch later this month.
