PUBG Mobile: How to play
Just like other games, PUBG Mobile also needs a bit of practice to get better. However, it is quite simple to understand and get a hang off. It is an online battle royale game, which requires you to be the last man standing in order to win the game.
It has different modes, which include a Third Person Perspective (TPP) and a First Person Perspective (FPP). Furthermore gamers can choose between Classic and Arcade, where Classic is a more competitive game and Arcade provides casual modes in order for users to practice their skills. Currently, the game offers three maps, which include Erangal, Miramar and Sanhok. Gamers can also choose to go solo or create a team of up to 4 people.
In the classic mode, 100 people jump out of an aeroplane and then have to fight against each other in order to be the last person standing. Users can choose to get down at a certain location using the map on the top right corner. Once they get down at a particular location, they will need to use the on-screen controls to move around. The first thing one needs to do is find the basics, which include a gun, ammo, armour, helmet, backpack and medical supplies.

A few things you need to be careful about is staying inside the safe zone and staying away from the red circle. Also, when you are inside the red circle you should make sure that you are inside a building so that the bombarding doesn't kill you.
