Battleground Mobile India (BGMI) has been one of the most popular mobile games in India, with over 10 crore downloads currently. However, with multiple improvements in terms of graphics, along with the addition of various elements, the hardware requirements to run the game have also increased, while also becoming larger in size. The battle royale-style multiplayer game now occupies a lot more space on devices than it did. To better serve a larger group of gamers, Krafton, the developer of BGMI, introduced BGMI Lite, a new title built within the BGMI ecosystem. The new game is said to occupy notably less storage on Android devices, while also demanding lower system specifications.

If you are wondering how you can register to play BGMI Lite when it launches later this year, along with other details, like the minimum system requirements and download size, we have prepared a guide to help you with the same.
