Why it is unlikely for Wuthering Waves to get banned in India

With the Indian government’s ongoing scrutiny of Chinese apps, a question lingers in some minds: could Wuthering Waves face a similar fate? It’s a valid concern, considering the past track record of the Indian Government in banning popular Chinese games & apps. The lack of clarity surrounding the developer’s origin adds another layer of uncertainty.

There’s reason to believe that Wuthering Waves might avoid the ban hammer. Here’s why:

We have the example of Genshin Impact, another popular RPG that has faced no issues in India despite its Chinese origins. This suggests that the government might be taking a more nuanced approach, evaluating each game on a case-by-case basis and looking into the privacy policies of said apps.

Here, factors like data security practices and the nature of the content would likely play a significant role.

So, while a sliver of uncertainty remains, the signs are positive for Wuthering Waves in India. With its captivating premise, engaging gameplay, and scheduled May 22nd release for mobile and PC platforms, Wuthering Waves is poised to become a major player in the Indian gaming scene. Gamers can pre-register for Wuthering Waves now and prepare to explore a post-apocalyptic world filled with challenges and mysteries.
