PUBG MOBILE LITE

The battle royale madness is still going strong with new games being released on a regular basis. The genre's giants such as PUBG and Fortnite are still experiencing massive numbers of players, and the hype remains strong.

However, people with low-to-mid tier phones haven't been able to play PUBG, or have had to endure low FPS. That is why PUBG Mobile Lite was launched. Here is what it brings to the table.

Optimized for limited storage

First of all, the download file is much smaller, meaning that the game should run fine on Android phones with limited storage. While the developer states a minimum requirement of 600 MB, expect the game to take up between 1 GB and 2 GB of storage once the full installation and resource unpacking are complete. The whole game feels and looks like the original PUBG Mobile, but the graphics quality difference is more than noticeable.

Faster matches and smaller maps

The core PUBG Mobile Lite experience happens on a smaller 2x2 km map called Varenga with 60 players diving into the action, as opposed to 100 players in PUBG Mobile. This automatically leads to shorter matches which last only around 10 minutes. This is great since it makes the game a little more exciting and fast-paced, which is generally something a mobile game should try to achieve.

Familiar gameplay mechanics

The game modes include Classic and Arcade, and maps like Varenga and Golden Woods are currently supported in the game. Gameplay feels almost like the real thing. The game's mechanics and weapon use feel great, and it almost feels like PUBG Mobile with all graphics settings set to low.

The bot problem

Still, there are many, many bots in the game, and that is something to expect at lower matchmaking tiers. This somewhat ruins the game and makes getting the Chicken Dinner much easier. Hopefully, the player pool density improves as you rank up.
