After multiple iterations of successful beta testing, the PUBG Mobile 2.1 update is set for official release. The patch started rolling out slowly on 11 July and should be available to all gamers, irrespective of the platform, by the evening of 13 July.
They may enjoy the new features by downloading the update straight from their respective stores whenever it becomes available, since the servers are not taken down for maintenance. However, Android users have the option to use the APK file.
The developers always provide the APK on the official website, reducing the need to search the internet for legitimate files.
Note: Due to government-imposed restrictions, Indian players should avoid playing PUBG Mobile. They can instead play the region-specific version, BGMI.

Players can use the link below to download the latest APK file directly:
