Mobile Battle Royale Games

The PUBG Mobile Game Brings the Frantic Gameplay to Smartphone Users

— March 21, 2018 — Tech
Not to be beat out by its competitor Fortnite, PlayerUnknown's Battleground has just released its PUBG Mobile game to bring the frantic battle royale craze to the mobile market. The game has already launched for Android and iOS, and has managed to replicate the same action and intensity as the full console PC version of the game. Like the non-mobile version, PUBG Mobile drops 100 players into an expansive map and tasks a single player, or a squad, with being the sole survivor. The gameplay and mechanics are drawn straight from the original and has been properly ported for mobile controls and graphics.

Unlike Fortnite mobile, the PUBG Mobile game will be available on iOS 9 and will work on Android devices. However, unlike Fortnite, this title will not include cross-play functionality, meaning mobile players will only get to play against other mobile players.
Trend Themes
1. Frantic Battle Royale Craze - Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop mobile games with intense battle royale gameplay to cater to the growing demand for this genre on smartphones.
2. Replicating Console PC Experience - Disruptive innovation opportunity: Create mobile games that accurately emulate the action and intensity of popular console or PC games to attract a wider audience.
3. Mobile Cross-play Functionality - Disruptive innovation opportunity: Integrate cross-play functionality in mobile games to enable players on different platforms to compete against each other, fostering a more inclusive and diverse gaming experience.
Industry Implications
1. Mobile Gaming - Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop and enhance mobile gaming technologies to meet the demand for immersive and engaging gaming experiences on smartphones.
2. Esports - Disruptive innovation opportunity: Establish and expand mobile eSports leagues and tournaments to capitalize on the growing popularity of competitive mobile gaming.
3. Mobile App Development - Disruptive innovation opportunity: Innovate and optimize mobile app development processes to create high-performance and visually stunning mobile games that rival console and PC counterparts.
