Technical Details

How PUBG Online Play Works

Console players on PlayStation and Xbox can play together seamlessly, with full crossplay enabled by default between PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S. However, PC players are completely separated and can only play with other PC players. This creates three distinct matchmaking pools: Console (PlayStation + Xbox), PC only, and Mobile only (which is a separate game entirely), to ensure a healthy experience. Voice chat works natively between consoles, though many players prefer Discord.

PUBG Solo & Offline Play

PUBG: Battlegrounds is an online-only game requiring a constant internet connection. There is no offline mode or single-player campaign available.

PUBG Local Co-Op & Split Screen

PUBG does not support local split-screen co-op. All multiplayer is online-only, with each player requiring their own device and account.

Known Issues & Limitations

PC and console players cannot play together due to balancing concerns with mouse/keyboard controls. This separation exists in all game modes including casual, ranked, and custom matches. There's no workaround or setting to enable PC-console crossplay.
