The mobile version of PUBG has pretty much all the features of its PC counterpart.
All the weapons, gear, and vehicles available when PUBG first exited Early Access are here too. The guns it’s added since are absent, as is the game’s second map, Miramar.
The game is totally free. You can login as either a guest or with Facebook to play. Gameplay and daily login rewards will earn your account experience and battle points, which can be spent on crates which contain a random piece of clothing for your character. Unlike in the PC version, you don’t start with any available clothing, but getting at least a pair of pants doesn’t take too long.
The matchmaking works pretty quickly when queueing in squad, duo, or solo mode, though many of the options from the PC version are absent. Creating a private custom match doesn’t seem to be possible just yet. There’s a menu option for creating a “room,” but it appears to be for creating chat rooms, and also doesn’t seem to actually work yet.
The game has built-in voice chat, which works, though it feels like most players just use their phone’s speaker for a mic. If the mic is on the bottom of the phone, as is common, it can lead to some pretty annoying extra noise when players’ palms rub against it.
To be clear: the controls in PUBG Mobile aren’t as good or accurate as the PC version. Duh.
The game uses virtual joysticks for player movement and camera control, and a big button with a bullet on the right will shoot your gun. It’s a little clumsy at first, but actually feels pretty fluid after a few games.
The game offers a few different control options to make everything feel a bit better and get rid of the awkwardness of hunting for buttons you can’t find by feel. A floating shoot button, which moves to wherever your thumb last touched, makes shooting as simple as tapping where your finger already is, rather than having to reorient your hand to reach the spot that fires the gun. Items are automatically picked up, sorted, and equipped in game, which cuts down on some tedious menu management. The game also offers gyroscopic control options, which I’ve never enjoyed, but some swear by.
A port of PUBG can hardly be called a replacement for the PC version as it does not offer any cross platform capabilities. The gameplay is reminiscent of the PC version, and is rather good for a standalone mobile game. But if you are looking to replace your experience for the PC version with the mobile one I would say that you will feel a lack of the soul that the PC verison offers.
When we compare it to the other prominent battle royale game on phones, like Rules of Survival, which incidentally is from Tencent Games as well and inspired from PUBG, PUBG Mobile stands out as a much better experience with more refinements.
