PUBG Players Receiving Health Reminder Alert on Game Screen
According to a screenshot popped up while playing the game and posted by a Twitter user, “You’ve played the game for six hours today. Please come back at 2019-03-23 05:30:00.” Some players even claimed that they received the reminder only after playing the game for 30 minutes and an hour.
Later, on Saturday, the company informed the users, they have fixed the undisclosed issue, that appears to have affected users only in India. The company not only shut the game down but also specified the time user should come back and play. “We’re aware of the ‘Healthy Gaming System’ issue that many of you are currently facing and we sincerely apologize for the inconvenience this has caused! Our development team is working to resolve the issue as soon as possible,” tweeted PUBG Mobile India. However, various social media users thought that this might be a test feature or caused by the developers or software bug or hackers. We have observed many serious cases due to this game in recent months. Gujarat Police arrested ten people including six college students for playing PUBG Mobile in public.
