PUBG Mobile vs PUBG Mobile Lite: We take a look at what’s different

PUBG Mobile vs PUBG Mobile Lite: Maps and servers

The main difference that most people will notice while playing PUBG Mobile Lite after playing on PUBG Mobile is the availability of maps. PUBG Mobile has four maps Erangel, Miramar, Sanhok and Vikendi. PUBG Mobile Lite only has two maps; Erangel in the Classic Mode and War in the Arcade Mode.

As of now, there are two servers available with pings around 300ms-400ms, Asia and South America. Though the Erangel map’s name is the same, the map on the Lite version is very different. The locations and the surroundings are completely different and it doesn’t feel very familiar. Though the gameplay does seem similar. The War map is something new, which we haven’t seen in PUBG Mobile and it unlocks at level 10.

Though the Erangel map name is same, the map isn’t.

The maps in PUBG Mobile Lite are smaller like the war map is only 2x2kms in size. We expect the company to soon add more maps to PUBG Mobile Lite for players to explore.

PUBG Mobile vs PUBG Mobile Lite: Royale Pass vs Winner Pass

PUBG Mobile with its launch introduced the Royale Pass a way for the players to get additional benefits while playing. PUBG Mobile Lite has tried to deliver a similar experience to its users with the Winner Pass. The only difference between the two is the name and the fact that the Winner Pass will give rewards more quickly and it gets over within a month. The Royale Pass will last longer depending on what the company has planned.

Both PUBG Mobile and PUBG Mobile Lite have been developed using the Unreal Engine 4. However, this doesn’t mean that the graphics will remain the same.
