In addition to the removal of Free Fire from Indian app stores, many players have also reported problems making in-app purchases, which can likely be attributed to the game being removed from stores.

While the developers have previously acknowledged and informed players that they are looking into the login issue, there is no clarification or statement regarding the removal.

It is therefore advisable to avoid any of these rumors and instead wait for an official statement to be made, which could be done soon.
