Error Code - Restrict Area
Hi everyone,
I am originally from Himachal Pradesh, India, but I have been studying in Korea for the past 2.5 years. I recently came back home to India in late February. I play PUBG Mobile a lot, and until yesterday, the game was running fine on almost all ISPs here.
However, after the recent 5.9MB update, I am facing a login issue (Error Code - Restrict Area) while opening the game here in India. Can anyone confirm if the entire country has been restricted after this update? I just want to verify if there is an official notice or announcement regarding this.
Thanks,
Saveer

Same here
I used a vpn and got 7 days ban
Damn, which VPN ?
Iam from Germany
I got same problem to
I delete and download again
It's happening in many countries, not only in India or Japan.. We only have a few options:
1. Use VPN (No guarantee of stable gameplay)🤧
2. Download another version of PUBG like KR (loose all achievements, skins, rank etc)🥲
3. Shift to BGMI (only for Indian Players)🇮🇳
Bgmi ❌
Hacker game ✅
That's why I am shifting to PUBG kr, not BGMI
😅
Let's play together can we play kr without vpn
But where to download? 🥲

Ok no problem
@MaGiX SaVeeR I have a same problem brother 😥😥
Where are you from brother ?
Ye pubg team ke bosdke log koi response bhi nahi de rahe
You seem to be a helpful individual. I read your previous messages. You said you deleted and reinstalled it. Did it alone solve the problem? Or did the problem persist and you had to use ExpressVPN even after reinstalling?
It seems that the problem was resolved after reinstalling for her however she isn't from India but germany so maybe it was like a bug for her which was fixed after she reinstalled
Did you really get banned? What notification did you receive?
IPs ban kr di ab 🥺
I am from Nepal but now I living in India Gujarat
All Servers Are Down For India Permanently
Not only for India
Every country where the game was banned
Any solution?
Ohhh
Which countries? Cuz I have only seen Indians with this problem
300+ ping with VPN 🥲
Atm it's better to quit or move to BGMI
Use Pubg KR / VN Version
Bgmi is shit 🫥
And my progress? Transferable?
No
Nahh you gotta leave it behind and start again
How do I download it? PUBG kr
See YouTube Videos
I was happy about the comback of On my Way & old erangle 🥲

With VPN?
No
You're out of India?
No
I m from India
Then how are you playing without vpn
To begin with how did you login?
But Not Playing
Ahhh gotcha
Any official announcement or notice ?
I have seen the patch notes of 14 March, nothing is mentioned there regarding this issue

Try it and check whether we can bypass it
