PUBG, or perhaps PlayerUnkown's Battlegrounds to those that love to keep it official, is so simple on the outside, but it's a classic example of a game a lot deeper than it looks.

This PUBG tips page will tackle as much of that depth as you possibly can, from beginners PUBG tips to a more hi-tech guide to the game.

PUBG beginners guide: How Battlegrounds works and the way to survive until the end game There are so many little tips and tricks worth knowing for PUBG that we have chose to compile one big ol' list of them right here, splitting them up into the relevant categories to ensure you can decide to skip ahead, or simply browse at the leisure of yours.

Before diving in however, it is worth talking just a little about how to approach PUBG matches in general, particularly if you are a newbie or simply looking to learn the game a bit better.

How Battlegrounds works

PUBG is not your typical shooter. The objective is usually to survive, to never receive the most kills - the truth is you can win without getting one one - and so your usual shooter strategy needs to adapt.

The prevailing meta, so to speak, is stealth. Indeed, a lot of the highest ranking players who're aiming to participate at upcoming tournaments simply rely on' boring' stealth strategies, like hiding offshore on boats, to see them through to the final gunfight at the conclusion of a round. The argument goes that everyone else is going to kill each other anyway, so why expose yourself to the risk?

But that is not the whole story - combat, for starters, is great practise. PUBG's combat mechanics are a little unusual and mastering those makes a tremendous difference to the number of final 10 situations you'll win.

Likewise, mid game kills are a great way to take your gear from passable to excellent. And lastly, in case you do get spotted hiding in a bush, it helps you to fully grasp how to shoot the one who found you.

The general flow of a game then is nearly as follows:

You'll spawn in the plane, and need to choose somewhere to land. We've put together a separate guide on the best PUBG loot locations on Erangel and Miramar, as well as specific pages on the Erangel map and Miramar map, also.
