The free-to-play model of Playerunknown’s Battlegrounds for slower PCs is coming to Europe in October, builders PUBG Corp have introduced. PUBG Lite is a separate standalone game, not a mode or possibility for the unique. And yeah, it appears to be like worse and it will get updates later, but in addition it’s free and might run on a laptop computer with a cruddy Intel built-in graphics card – two large obstacles to entry eliminated. After debuting in Thailand in January, PUBG Lite will subsequent come to European international locations together with the UK, Russia, and even Vatican City in open beta from October 10th. I guess The Young Pope loves Plunk with the lads.
PUBG Lite could have fewer polygons and texture pixels, nevertheless it’s nonetheless largely the identical semi-serious battle royale FPS. It’s made for previous and gradual PCs, not for Fortnite gamers. Compare PUBG Lite’s system requirements with the big one’s. It does play a bit of otherwise by having such low element that gamers stand out clearly, although sweaty Plunkers can already flip their graphics settings means down for the same impact anyway.
PUBG Lite has slowly unfold throughout a lot of South Asia, South America, the Middle East, and North Africa since January. You can see the record of nations within the open beta over here.
You’ll notice that they haven’t introduced plans for North America, although they nonetheless say they’re “planning to expand our service in many other countries” and at this level I anticipate it to comply with. If PUBG Lite is coming to Europe’s comparatively conventional premium PC gaming markets, North America appears extra a matter of logistics than a query of goal audiences.
The Young Pope would absolutely play correct Playerunknown’s Battlegrounds reasonably than PUBG Lite, thoughts. He’ll have demanded a custom-built turbocharged PC. The case is carved from marble and adorned with gold. Technically his PC is a reliquary, with the (holy) water cooling system flowing by way of Saint Peter’s tibia. His mechanical keyboard makes use of the knucklebones of minor saints for a satisfying clickety-clack. He acquired PUBG Corp to exchange Plunkbat’s vitality drinks with Cherry Choke for his Steam ID alone by providing to canonise Brendan “Plunk” Greene. He’s a scamp, that Young Pope.
