PUBG... on mobile? It struggles enough on Xbox One and Xbox One X, so how has Tencent got the game running on a phone... and what visual options are available? We've got the complete lowdown right here, with PUBG tested on Samsung Galaxy S8 and the Razer Phone.


Key points:

Only available on China (need to do some work to get it on the US)

Full fat PC and Console game (100 players, same island, huge map)

Reduced graphical fidelity and some structures are a little different

Game pretty much rebuilt to provide a better experience on mobile phones (UI etc)

High latency due to international servers but still playable

I'm pretty impressed with how they managed to translate the game to the phone experience.

I might download this today...

One of the high schoolers I work with was playing this the other day. It fluctuated from 60fps down to single digits depending on what was happening. He didn't believe me that he probably had some nasty lag playing on Chinese servers from the Eastern United States over a 3G connection
