PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds is available now on Mobile, PC, PS4, Stadia, and Xbox One. PC and mobile are PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds' most popular platforms, and a lively player-base is key for keeping a battle royale game running.

Unfortunately, PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds has a cheating problem. Considering the push for PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds as an e-sport and the rumored 1v1 Vostok mode, the audiences may be separate to keep the playing field even. In contrast, the touchscreen controls on mobile and mouse-aim on PC offer very different experiences. The PS4 and Xbox One controllers are similar, so there's no need to balance them. While it's possible to connect a mouse and keyboard to a console, the majority of players will be using gamepad controllers. It may be easier to keep the console versions in sync separate from the others. Sony and Microsoft have to approve each update.

PUBG Mobile allows for cross-platform play between Android and iOS devices but not for console or PC. says that one has been tweaked based on feedback from the first test. Just like with consoles, there is a limited cross-play system in place here. The update will bring back another installment of the Skill-Based Rating test PUBG Corp.
