PUBG Mobile
PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds (PUBG) is an online multiplayer game of the battle royale genre developed originally by Bluehole’s PUBG Corporation, a Korean video games company. The mobile version of the game is developed by Chinese publishers Tencent Games, which became a huge hit after its launch. Recently, the lifetime revenue of PUBG Mobile hit $3 Billion.
PUBG Mobile Gameplay
PUBG’s mobile version, much like it’s PC version, revolves around Darwin’s ‘Survival of the fittest’ evolutionary theory. The game starts with you being on an aeroplane, which carries all the players over a map. You can drop at any location you want, and collect different kinds of loots like weapons, healing items, attachments, safety gear etc. Your objective is to protect yourself and your team from the enemies till the end. Things get interesting over time as the playable area(Safe Zone) shrinks and all the players are enforced to move into the area, eventually enforcing action-packed encounters towards the end of the match. You can use different types of vehicles to travel in the game and move into the safe zone. In the end, the last player/ team to survive wins and earns a ‘Winner Winner Chicken Dinner‘.
