Krafton, the developer behind PUBG Mobile, has revealed plans to introduce a 120fps mode for the popular battle royale game in the upcoming version 3.2 update. This new feature aims to enhance gameplay by providing players with a smoother and more responsive gaming experience.
Enhanced Gaming Experience with 120fps Mode
Previously, PUBG Mobile users were limited to a maximum of 90fps for improved gameplay fluidity. With the introduction of the 120fps mode, Krafton is pushing the boundaries of mobile gaming. However, it remains uncertain whether this feature will be accessible on both Android and iOS devices.
The 120fps mode is expected to be tailored for high-end and upper mid-range smartphones, as rendering the game at a higher frame rate can be resource-intensive. Lower-tier devices may struggle to maintain performance at 120fps, especially with reduced graphics settings. Additionally, most entry-level devices have yet to support the 90fps feature.
Expansion to BGMI and Device Compatibility
The introduction of the 120fps mode extends not only to PUBG Mobile but also to BGMI (Battlegrounds Mobile India), aligning the Indian version with the global one. Currently in beta testing, selected users are already exploring the 120fps mode. Early feedback indicates warnings about potential overheating and increased battery consumption while using this feature.
For optimal performance of the 120fps mode, smartphone manufacturers must also optimize their devices to leverage this high frame rate. Flagship smartphones equipped with powerful processors, such as the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2, are expected to seamlessly support the new mode. Likewise, iPhones featuring 120Hz displays are likely to be compatible with this feature.
Recent Updates and Future Enhancements
The unveiling of the 120fps mode closely follows the release of PUBG Mobile version 3.1 update. This recent update introduces various notable additions, including the themed mode "Skyhigh Spectacle" set in the skies with unique transportation modes and strategic items.
Moreover, the "Home" gameplay mode enables players to personalize and construct their virtual homes, explore other players' homes, and engage in diverse activities to enhance social interactions. Updates to Miramar, WOW gameplay, and Metro Royale introduce fresh elements like urban landscapes, creative opportunities, and firearm attachments, enriching the overall gaming experience.
