PUBG is the game that started the battle royale craze. Here are its PC requirements and what you need for smooth 60 FPS+ gameplay.

What Is PUBG?

PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds (PUBG) is the game that defined the modern battle royale genre. 100 players parachute onto a large island, scavenge for weapons and vehicles, and fight to be the last person or squad standing. Developed by PUBG Corporation (Krafton), PUBG launched in early access in 2017, reached 3 million concurrent players, and transitioned to free-to-play in 2022.

FPS Targets and Settings

PUBG is CPU-demanding during the early game when many players are visible simultaneously. A mid-range CPU (Ryzen 5 5600, Core i5-12400) comfortably runs competitive settings at 144+ FPS on the Erangel map. Competitive players use low or very low graphics settings to maximize frame rates — enemy visibility improves at low settings because bushes and foliage render less densely.
