Will PUBG Mobile Light run on your phone? Below is what Krafton has actually confirmed, plus a realistic estimate for the rest, with the two kept clearly apart.
What Krafton has confirmed
- Initial download: around 1 GB on Android, under 2 GB on iOS.
- No mandatory extra package before your first match.
- Modular content: download only the extras you want.
- Design goal: reduce device load and let players jump in faster, on a wider range of phones.
Krafton has not published an exact minimum RAM, OS version, or chipset. The table below is our estimate, based on the app’s goals and the current PUBG Mobile client. Treat the estimated rows as a guide, not gospel.
Expected system requirements
| Requirement | Android | iOS |
|---|---|---|
| Initial storage (confirmed) | ~1 GB | under 2 GB |
| Free space to keep free (estimate) | 3-4 GB | 4-5 GB |
| RAM (estimate) | 2 GB or more | iPhone 8 era or newer |
| OS (estimate) | Android 6.0+ | iOS 13+ |
| Connection | Stable internet | Stable internet |
How much storage do you really need?
Plan for more than the 1 GB install. Games grow with updates.
Even though Light lets you skip optional packs, keep a few gigabytes free for updates and match data. If your phone is nearly full, clear some space before launch day.
Will it run on a low-end or old phone?
That is exactly who it is for. Krafton built Light to cut device load and be more accessible than the full client.
If your phone struggles with standard PUBG Mobile today, Light is the version to watch. We will confirm the exact minimum specs here as soon as Krafton publishes them.
iPhone and iPad
On iOS the download is under 2 GB. Any fairly recent iPhone should handle it easily. Keep a few gigabytes free for updates.
