The film was released in Indian theaters on November 27, 2020, through Zee Studios and Kross Pictures.

The protagonist is Jung-seok (played by Gang Dong-won), a former Marine Corps captain who managed to escape Korea on the day the outbreak began. However, he carries the heavy burden of guilt, having failed to save his sister and nephew during their escape. Living as a refugee in Hong Kong, he is offered a dangerous mission: return to the quarantined peninsula to retrieve a truck filled with $20 million in cash.

The lack of a Train To Busan 2 Tamil version boils down to distribution rights and market economics. While Train to Busan (2016) was a massive hit in the international circuit, Peninsula received mixed reviews compared to its predecessor. Distributors in South India likely calculated that the cost of producing a high-quality Tamil dub (which requires famous voice artists and studio time) was not worth the return on investment (ROI) for the Tamil audience.
