After missing its promised June 21 rollout date for the Team Deathmatch (TDM) mode in the made-in-India mobile game FAU-G, developer nCore Games recently teased that it’s coming soon. Well, to our surprise, the FAU-G TDM update has finally arrived in beta on Android today, and here’s everything you need to know about it.
nCore Games made the announcement of FAU-G’s TDM mode launch on Twitter. While everyone expected the TDM mode to arrive as an update for the original FAU-G game, which launched earlier this year, the TDM mode beta has been made available as a standalone title called FAU-G: Multiplayer.

How to Install and Play FAU-G TDM Mode on Your Android Phone?
Method 1: Using the Play Store
If you are eager to try out the FAU-G TDM update, simply follow the steps below:
- You don’t need to sign up to become a tester or anything. Simply tap on “Install” and start playing the game.
In its official tweet, nCore Games does say that there are only limited slots available in the FAU-G TDM beta. So if you couldn’t get into the beta test, here is a workaround to try out FAU-G Multiplayer on your Android device right now.
Now, copy the OBB file and move it to the /Android/obb folder on your Android phone.
Next up, long-press on the game’s icon from the app drawer and tap on the ‘i’ icon to access the App Info settings page. Here, make sure to give FAU-G: Multiplayer any required permissions before you open the game.
The FAU-G TDM update won’t take a lot of storage space on your phone. The FAU-G TDM mode download size is around 300MB from the Play Store. It takes up around 430MB of storage space on your device. So yeah, you can easily download and install it on most budget Android phones as well.

Coming to the most important section of this article, how is the FAU-G TDM gameplay? Is FAU-G TDM comparable to Call of Duty Mobile or PUBG Mobile (Battlegrounds Mobile India) TDM Mode? Well, the short and sweet answer to this question is NO.

FAU-G TDM Mode: Gameplay
Next, let’s talk about what the FAU-G TDM mode gameplay is like. Once you tap the “Play” button and jump into a Team Deathmatch, you join four other players in a 5 vs 5 battle on Bazaar. The objective is to take down enemies and get 40 kills within the stipulated time limit. The team that gets 40 kills or has the most kills in 10 minutes wins the match.
The game also has some Hindi quips, such as “Pehle prahar aapki team ke naam” (your team gets the first kill), “Double Dhamaka” (when you get two kills back to back), and more.
You can spot the enemies marked in red from afar, but gunning them down may not be an easy task. I played couple-odd matches on my OnePlus Nord (running FAU-G TDM mode at around 60-70fps on medium graphics settings) with the AK-42 assault rifle and SVS 63 to get a feel of close-quarter and ranged combat. While the accuracy of the weapons felt off to me at times, the Bayonet melee weapon became my favorite companion for killing bots at spawn points. Yeah, that was my highlight of the FAU-G TDM mode today.
Moreover, since FAU-G TDM mode is a multiplayer game, nCore Games should have put in the option to invite friends and play together as a team. The core essence of a multiplayer game is missing from this closed beta build. But we hope the developers will take this as feedback and introduce the option to add friends, invite them to your team and take down enemies together.
