India has banned 118 more Chinese apps, including the mobile version of the game PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds, or PUBG, which it said prejudicial to their sovereignty, integrity, defense, security, and public order.
Tencent's PUBG was the top mobile game by monthly active users in India last year, according to analytics firm AppAnnie.
India had blocked the use of TikTok from ByteDance and scores of other apps in recent months.
The new list included two apps named "VPN for Tik Tok," which appear to be designed to skirt the restrictions.
The list also includes Chinese search giant Baidu and Alipay, the mobile payment app from Ant Group.
The two countries have been increasingly at odds since a deadly border clash in June that left 20 Indian soldiers dead.
Tensions have spilled over into the two countries' trading relationship, worth more than $80 billion, between.
The situation on the border is heating up again with China accusing Indian troops of illegally trespassing on their territory in the Himalayas, which led to another standoff.
