PUBG Mobile Flash Arrives in Bangladesh on 13 November, Runs on 2GB RAM Phones Too

Staff Reporter

A new version of PUBG Mobile, 'PUBG Mobile Flash', is coming to Bangladesh with low- and mid-range smartphone users in mind. The game is set to launch in the country on 13 November.

Flash will offer PUBG Mobile's familiar battle royale experience while using comparatively less storage, it has been announced.

Coming with the slogan 'The Best Real Shooting Game', one of Flash's main attractions is its small download size. Initially, the download will be less than 0.96 gigabytes on Android and 1.75 gigabytes on iOS.

Flash will include the popular Erangel map and the classic battle royale mode from the start, so play can begin without waiting to download them separately. Other maps, modes and event materials can be downloaded later as needed.

Although it is a lighter version, Flash will stay connected with the main PUBG Mobile. Players will be able to use their existing accounts, friends lists and various in-game assets. Players of the two versions will also be able to play together in the same matchmaking system, so friends will not all need to use the same version.

Special changes have been made to Flash's graphics to improve the playing experience on low- and mid-range smartphones. Compared with Flash's beta version, the target is to raise the average frame rate by 10 percent and improve stability by 10 percent. The targets also include reducing memory use by 12 percent and power consumption by 3 percent. Emphasis has also been placed on reducing loading time when the game launches and before a match starts.

To ensure fair competition, Flash will have a full BanPan security system. It will include monitoring during play, punitive action against rule-breakers and review by relevant staff.

A smartphone will need at least 2 gigabytes of RAM to play the game. Depending on the device's capability and compatibility, play will be available at 25, 30, 40 and 60 frames per second, or FPS.

Combining a familiar battlefield, the ability to use an old account and a small download size, PUBG Mobile Flash wants to reach more smartphone users. Its journey in Bangladesh will begin on 13 November.
