Game Modes

The gameplay of BATTLEGROUNDS is arranged in a variety of game modes. Whether if you want the traditional Battle Royale experience, to Arcade style shooters like Team Deathmatch game modes, BATTLEGROUNDS can cater to your playstyle.

Summary
Each game mode (Solo, Duo, Squad, etc) will be matched independently (For example, Duos cannot be matched with Solo queue). For these game modes, they consist of First Person Perspective (FPP) servers & Third Person Perspective (TPP) servers (with 1st person being optional to be toggled).

Ranked
You play ranked to raise up within the leaderboards to see who has the highest total ELO, concurrent wins in a session and/or the highest kills during a match.

For questions regarding ranked servers, head to the FAQ.

Unranked
Unranked are mostly for players who want to learn the game or fool around without losing your ELO ranking in ranked servers.

This existed at the start of Sanhok‎'s release but not anymore.

Solos
The classic game mode. Complete free for all, kill everyone, be the last one alive.

Solo, a game mode where you spawn into the world alone and you just rely on your own tactics and skill to push you to the end and be the last player alive.

Solos FPP (First Person Perspective)
Solo FPP is based around your normal Solo game mode (as read above), but instead of being in 3rd person this is strictly in 1st person.

Duos
For this game mode, you will be paired up with another individual and will compete to be the last ones alive.

Duos FPP (First Person Perspective)
Duo FPP is based around your normal Duo game mode (as read above), but instead of being in 3rd person this is strictly in 1st person.

Squads
Squad is a gameplay type where players are organized into teams which are then pitted against each other. This is distinct from the classic Free For All (FFA) gameplay mode, where players are free to kill whomever they wish.

SQUAD, a game mode where you can team up in groups of 2, 3 or 4 players, or if you prefer, you can still play solo and take on everyone alone in the match.

Note: No matter the size of your party when you enter a match, you'll be matched with teams of 4.

Squads FPP (First Person Perspective)
Squad FPP is based around your normal Squad game mode (as read above), but instead of being in 3rd person this is strictly in 1st person.

Training Mode
Training Mode lets 5 - 20 players explore a 2x2km map and practice all aspects of PUBG, from driving the game’s various vehicles around the island’s race tracks to practicing parachute landings on scattered targets, to mastering the perfect peek shot. For more information, head to Training.

Custom
What are custom games?

Custom games are dedicated servers that PUBG Partners can randomly start up at given time. Partners whatever BR match they want to create ranging from a BR Zombie match or any custom preset they want ranging from snipers only to melee only. They have the ability to control every setting in a match ranging from when air drops come, how fast the circles are, if to enable/disable Red zones and more.



Zombies
A user created game mode that got announced at the E3 Twitch stage of 2017. It's currently in work in progress (since PUBG Corp still haven't added in the zombie mocap animations yet) official game mode with player controlled zombies that also have custom zombie mocap animations and zombie outfits.

Zombies can't pick up weapons, they have to rely on biting or hitting the survivors.

War
War, a game mode from ARMA 3 BR that has a deathmatch style where players kill each other for 30 minutes (if you die, you respawn back in with a parachute) and then at the end once the blue zone locks in, you can't respawn anymore. After the blue zone locks, it will end normally in a BR ending with the circles, bombing runs and air drops.
