PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds (PUBG) vs PUBG Mobile
PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds (PUBG)
PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds (PUBG) is a battle royale game that features a vast open world island filled with plenty of resources to scavenge. Being a battle royale game, everyone will start off on an equal playing field. Through clever scavenging and picking the correct fights will you end up with the last few survivors to battle it out for the winning spot as the map will gradually shrink, pushing survivors closer and closer together.In some way, Player Unknown's Battlegrounds reminds me of Hunger Games, albeit a much more brutal Hunger Games that you can actually play in, and I'd actually like that.
However, the game is still pretty poorly optimized long after its release as an early access game, and well, the game has drawn plenty of flak since the devs have started banning anybody who killed a streamer who cries foul due to this thing called "Stream sniping", giving rise to a pretty bad and toxic atmosphere where streamers are players whom you literally can't kill in fear of being banned for no reason other than getting the upper hand on a streamer. Worst thing is the game's not exactly a free-to-play, so if you do get banned, that's literally money down the drain.
So, even if the game is as epic a battle royale game as it is, you should keep these downsides in mind going in. Gameplay-wise, the game is amazing, but you will need to be wary of its increasingly toxic community (both players and the team managing the PR side of the game).
Its developer, BlueHole, has recently (as of March 2018) released the mobile versions of the game, PUBG Mobile. The mobile version of PUBG is available on both Android and iOS.
PUBG Mobile
PUBG Mobile is the mobile port of the insanely popular battle royale game, PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds. Featuring the same intense gameplay as the original (PC/console) version, you'll be pitted against 100 other players a.k.a. survivors on a remote but vast island in a massive showdown of wits and skill, all done in the hopes of being the last person standing and winning that goshdarn delicious "chicken dinner".This port is as perfect as it can get without compromising on quality, though there have been some rumors going around that the game is rigged, at the beginning at least, so you'd play against bots rather than an all-humasn ensemble of players. This is actually a pretty great idea to ease new players into a highly competitive game. The best part about all of this, however, is the fact that the game is free-to-play. Of course, the game still retains its principle of fairness so you won't see spenders with overpowered weaponry right from the start in this game.
So, if you have always wanted to try "the battle royale game that started it all", this is your chance! PUBG Mobile is as close to the real thing as it gets and well, you can play this for free!
