What Is Arcade Mode in PUBG Mobile?

New with Update 0.4.0, Arcade Mode is an all-new 28-player mode that can be played solo or with friends. Each match of Arcade Mode is randomly assigned one of six variations:

For those tired of getting picked apart by seasoned PUBG veterans – or those just looking to up their game a little – Training Grounds offers exactly what it sounds like. In this solo mode, you can test out any weapon or item, work on your aim, and get a real feel for PUBG’s mechanics without fear of getting killed.
