You have less than a month to play PUBG Lite before it shuts down

PUBG Lite has been offering a low-spec version of the original PUBG since 2019. In November 2020, the game adopted a free-to-play model in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. But now comes the news that PUBG Lite will close permanently in late April.

This information comes from a statement released by PUBG Corp.

“We are deeply grateful for the passion and support of the incredible number of PUBG LITE fans who have been with us. During the grueling times of the COVID-19 pandemic, we hope PUBG LITE has been able to provide our fans with a fun way to stay safe.

Unfortunately, we made the difficult decision to close the service after much thought and it is time for our journey to end. We regret that the PUBG LITE service will end on April 29, 2021 (UTC). “

The statement does not state a primary reason for removing the game, but emphasizes that the decision comes “after much deliberation”.

In the statement, the developer also told fans, “We would like to express our sincere apologies and our deepest appreciation to everyone. We truly hope you enjoyed your time with us and please look forward to our future efforts. “.

If you haven’t downloaded the game, it’s already too late to do so – the developer pulled out all the download links on Tuesday. However, if you have already downloaded the game, you can play it and spend all credits in the game until April 29th. And on May 29th, all player support for this game will definitely cease.

Sad as it is, fans can expect more games from the PUBG universe, including the PUBG Mobile sequel PUBG: New State and a larger project that most fans assume is a full-fledged sequel to both the original PUBG and PC. than for console.
