PUBG Mobile Goes Cloud-Based: A Soft Launch in the US and Malaysia

Krafton is bringing PUBG Mobile to the cloud, launching a cloud-based version in a soft launch for the US and Malaysia. This eliminates the need for downloads or local programs, making the game accessible on a wider range of devices.

The cloud gaming market is booming, offering high-fidelity gameplay on virtually any device. Krafton's approach with PUBG Mobile Cloud is unique, offering a standalone experience rather than tying it to a subscription service. This potentially expands the player base significantly.

PUBG Mobile Cloud boasts freedom from hardware limitations, overheating issues, and other technical constraints often associated with mobile gaming. While currently limited to the US and Malaysia, a global rollout is anticipated soon.

Expanding Accessibility

The appeal of cloud gaming lies in its accessibility, often bundled within subscription services. However, PUBG Mobile Cloud stands apart as a standalone offering, broadening its reach to players whose devices might struggle with the standard mobile version.

Although the game's page lists system requirements, the primary target audience likely includes players with less powerful devices. While its overall market niche remains to be seen, it undoubtedly caters to a specific segment of gamers.
