About PUBG MOBILEPUBG
MOBILE is based on PLAYERUNKNOWN’S BATTLEGROUNDS, the
phenomenon that took the world of interactive entertainment by
storm in 2017. Up to 100 players parachute onto a remote island to
battle in a winner-takes-all showdown. Players must locate and
scavenge their own weapons, vehicles and supplies, and defeat every
player in a visually and tactically rich battleground that forces
players into a shrinking play zone.
