PUBG Lite beta to be available in more countries in the coming weeks

PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds or PUBG recently got a new version for the Windows PC platform. The new PUBG Lite was introduced under a beta stage and it is currently available only in Thailand. The company is finally planning to extend its beta program to four more countries in the coming weeks.

PUBG Corporation made the announcement via their official Facebook page, which was first spotted by The IndianExpress. The post suggests that the beta program will be made available in South-East Asia countries including Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines and Singapore. Interested users can start testing out the game in these regions starting February 13.

Unfortunately, there is no information as of when the game will make its way to India. Indian players either have to settle for the mobile version of the game or purchase the full game for Rs. 999 via Steam for now.

PUBG Lite is a lighter and a free version of the game for PC. It has lesser minimum requirements, which means it can run on almost any modern PC. The Steam version of PUBG, on the other hand, requires a lot of power to provide smooth gameplay.
