The game is based on the backdrop of the Galwan Valley and real-life feud between the Indian soldiers and Chinese troops. The much-talked game is not like its counterpart and doesn’t have a Battle Royale Game Mode. In fact the game altogether features a single person campaign mode. In explaining about why the game is set up in Galwan Valley, the CEO and Co-founder of nCore Games told Indian Express, “FAU-G is trying to portray the life of an Indian Soldier and how faujis are fighting for us on the border. If you look at the genre of action games, they follow a theme. I think if we have to create a game from India, we have to base it on Indian themes, and if you look at Indian themes, we all saw Galwan Valley and what happened.”

The launch of FAUG was announced after PUBG Mobile India was banned by the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology on 2 September 2020. The central government had banned 118 mobile apps including PUBG in the country citing national security.
