Is PUBG coming to Switch?
It’s been so long now too, that it seems incredibly unlikely it will ever be released on the Switch - although, never say never. Even if the mobile version of the game was ported to the popular handheld it would be a plus. For now, you will need to get your PUBG fix elsewhere.
If you do love Battle Royale games though, here are some other games that may scratch that itch on the Switch:
- Fortnite
- Apex Legends
- Tetris 99
- Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout
There were a few more, but games like Spellbreak and Rumbleverse eventually closed down because they didn’t have enough players.
