STREAMHATCHET  Garena Free Fire was banned in India last week due to the app’s connections to China. The battle royale game is not the first to be banned in the country; PUBG Mobile was removed from the App Store and Google Play Store in September of 2020 due to similar concerns. According to GamesIndustry.biz, Free Fire and Free Fire Max had 238 million downloads in India alone prior to the ban.· This ban will also have major effects on live streamers in the country who primarily played Garena Free Fire prior to the ban.
