AMD to invest $400 million in India by 2028: Here’s what we know

US chipmaker Advanced Micro Devices said on Friday it will invest around $400 million in India over the next five years and will build its largest design center in the tech hub of Bengaluru. AMD’s announcement was made by its Chief Technology Officer Mark Papermaster at an annual semiconductor conference that started Friday in Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s home state of Gujarat. Other speakers at the flagship event include Foxconn Chairman Young Liu and Micron CEO Sanjay Mehrotra. Despite being a late entrant, the Modi government has been courting investments into India’s nascent chip sector to establish its credentials as a chipmaking hub. AMD said it will open its new design centre campus in Bengaluru by end of this year and create 3,000 new engineering roles within five years. “Our India teams will continue to play a pivotal role in delivering the high-performance and adaptive solutions that support AMD customers worldwide,” Papermaster said.

PUBG Mobile 2.0 could be on its way as a major haul: Here’s if the game will make it to India

PUBG Mobile and even PUBG, aka, PlayerUnkown’s Battlegrounds is a popular game and is often seen in the news for both good and bad reasons. The latest news seems to be a good one as the battle royale game is expected to get a major update in the form of PUBG 2.0 or PUBG Mobile 2.0 and might give us Indians a chance to actually play it. Read on to know more about this.

PUBG Mobile, PUBG 2.0 could launch soon

PUBG and PUBG Mobile are soon expected to get a sequel (possibly later this year), as per a report by Korean publication MTN. It is suggested that PUBG Mobile 2.0 has the codename ‘Project XTRM.’ It is also revealed that version 2.0 of the game has been in the works by Krafton since 2019. While it was for PUBG only, a 2.0 version of PUBG Mobile seems to be following too.

The news further seems to have some weight as a PUBG data miner has shared similar information via a tweet. The tweet also tells that the new version is expected to support cross-platform capability across PCs, gaming consoles, and mobile.

While not much is known about the alleged PUBG and PUBG Mobile 2.0, the project could be tackled by key personnel from PUBG Lite. To recall, PUBG Lite and PUBG Mobile Lite are toned-down versions of the game for low-end PCs and smartphones.

The new version of PUBG and PUBG Mobile feels refreshing as the game hasn’t received a major update in a long time. It could also prove to be good news for users in India and other places where it has been banned since it will be developed internally, without any links with Tencent.

Will it be helpful for us Indians, you ask? It’s worth noting that PUBG for PC is still playable in the country and if the new version supports cross-platform ability, it is highly expected to arrive in India too. The PC version of PUBG is available on Steam whereas console players (Xbox and PlayStation users) can purchase the game from their respective game stores.

As a reminder, PUBG Mobile and PUBG Mobile Lite can still be accessed outside India.

However, you should know that the aforementioned information isn’t concrete and should be taken with a grain of salt until some official information pops. We will keep you posted on the same. So, stay tuned.
