PUBG Mobile’s downloads exclude those of China due to the nation’s suspension of gaming licenses to overseas game applications.
“We will do our best to present fun to everyday lives through realistic battle experiences and innovative game elements.” said PUBG Corporation CEO Kim Chang-han.
PUBG Corporation will hold multiple events for its users until Sunday to celebrate passing the 200 million milestone.
