Version differences
- PUBG Mobile can be played on Windows using the Game Buddy, an Android OS emulator that specifically targets the game and, in fact was actually made by the same developer who created the mobile edition of the game, Tencent Games. Some prefer the mobile version over the original PC version due to being free to play and far less demanding.

Multi-monitor
- This is a safe .ini edit to make and will not result in a ban. Clarified by RoboDanjal on Discord (PUBG Dev): The statement is that any changes that provide an unfair advantage are not allowed.
