Yes. PUBG became free to play in January 2022, while the optional Battlegrounds Plus upgrade adds features such as access to Ranked mode and bonus in-game items.
Which platforms support PUBG: Battlegrounds?
PUBG is available on Windows PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series consoles. The console versions support cross-platform matchmaking between PlayStation and Xbox players, but PC players remain in a separate matchmaking pool.
How does a normal PUBG match differ from its smaller modes?
A traditional match drops as many as 100 players onto a large map such as Erangel, where a shrinking safe zone forces survivors together. Arcade options such as Team Deathmatch deliver shorter, respawn-based fights instead of one-life battle royale survival.
