PUBG MOBILE LITE is a battle royale experience optimized for devices with less memory and processing power. It maintains the core last-player-standing format on a smaller 60-player map, Erangel, for faster-paced matches.

Gameplay involves parachuting onto the island, scavenging for weapons and gear, and surviving as a shrinking play zone forces encounters. The touchscreen controls are adapted for mobile, with virtual joysticks for movement and customizable buttons for actions like aiming, shooting, and using items.

The mobile version includes team modes, various firearms and vehicles, and aims to deliver a streamlined version of the tactical survival shooter experience on a wider range of smartphones and tablets.
