If you’re looking for a way to play PUBG Mobile on PC, chances are you like to play games on the big screen. Let’s face it: mobile gaming isn’t for everyone.
Luckily, you can play Tencent’s popular mobile battle royale game on your PC or laptop and enjoy the advantages of a wider view and mouse and keyboard controls as you fight to be the last man standing. But for all that, you must set up a few things first.
How to play PUBG Mobile on PC
All you need is an emulator that lets you download and play Android or iOS-based games on Windows and Mac.
To play PUBG Mobile on PC, download GameLoop (formerly Tencent Gaming Buddy), the recommended emulator for playing the game on Windows or Mac. Alternatively, you can go for the popular and versatile BlueStacks Android emulator. In this guide, we’re going to help you set up the game on your PC with GameLoop.
How to use an emulator to play PUBG Mobile on PC
Simply follow the steps below:
- Go to the official website and download the GameLoop emulator for free. Avoid random websites offering fake versions; use the official download link only.
- After downloading, install GameLoop and then go to its Store page. Find PUBG Mobile and click on Install. After installation, the game should start downloading and be ready to play.
- When you launch the game for the first time, select the resolution that best suits your PC.
- The rest of the process is the same as the mobile version: Log in to your PUBG Mobile account, set up your character if it’s a new account, and you’re ready to jump into action.
The process for BlueStacks is pretty much the same: Go to the official website, download the emulator, install the game, and you’re good to go.
Before you queue for your first PUBG Mobile game on PC, set up the controls correctly. If you face performance hiccups like frame drops, lower the resolution settings. GameLoop and BlueStacks are well-optimized for PUBG Mobile, so you shouldn’t face many issues.
Mouse and keyboard offers a significant competitive advantage over touch controls. To maintain competitive fairness, Tencent ensures emulator players aren’t matched with mobile players by default. An emulator player can, however, team up with mobile players, but in that case, the lobby will be a mix of mobile and emulator players.
