PUBG Mobile enters the cloud gaming arena! A cloud-based version of the popular battle royale game is currently in soft launch in the US and Malaysia. This version eliminates the need for downloads or local programs, offering a seamless gaming experience.
Cloud gaming is rapidly gaining popularity, enabling high-fidelity gameplay on various devices. Krafton's PUBG Mobile Cloud takes a unique approach, presenting itself as a hardware-limitation-free experience, free from overheating and other technical constraints. While currently limited to the US and Malaysia, a global rollout is anticipated soon.
Cloud gaming operates by utilizing a remote server to handle the game's processing, eliminating the need for local downloads or programs. This translates to several potential advantages for PUBG Mobile:
Expanded Accessibility: Unlike many cloud gaming services that are subscription-based, PUBG Mobile Cloud appears to be a standalone offering, potentially broadening the game's player base significantly.
The game's Google Play page still lists system requirements, suggesting potential limitations. However, the primary target audience is likely players with devices that struggle to run the standard PUBG Mobile game.
The long-term success of PUBG Mobile Cloud remains to be seen, but it undoubtedly caters to a specific niche. For those seeking alternative shooting games, our list of the top 15 best iOS shooters is a great place to start.
