PUBG Mobile Lite launched in India, designed for lesser than 2GB of RAM

Tencent’s popular title Player Unknown’s Battle Grounds, or simply put, PUBG, has been a craze since its release last year. The game has now virtually become the face of the Battle Royale genre in countries like India.

Now, the company has launched PUBG Mobile Lite for lower end phones. The game is targeted at budget devices and older devices which are powered by lesser than 2GB of RAM.

The new title will further expand PUBG’s growing popularity. Available on the playstore, the game is available for download for roughly 400mb and features a smaller map in gameplay. Instead of the usual 100, the Lite version will put up 60 players at a time to battle against one another, crowning the lone remaining survivor with a ‘chicken dinner’.

An average match in the Lite version lasts for about 10 minutes compared to the 25-35 minutes of the original release. This is again, due to the smaller map and lesser number of active players in it.

The game even improves on key features that affect the gameplay on weaker networks like the absence of the bullet-drop effect, no bullet trails and enhanced aim-assist.

Head over to the Google Play Store to try out the game. New users get various rewards like new gears and vehicles.
