PUBG is a Chinese app.

The mobile version of PUBG was developed by the Chinese company Tencent, but the Korean gaming company, Bluehole, made the PUBG game.

The mobile version of PUBG was developed by the Chinese company Tencent, but the Korean gaming company, Bluehole, made the PUBG game. After the recent Indo-China clash at the Galwan Valley, the Indian government banned 59 Chinese apps. Many people started contemplating whether PUBG is of Chinese origin or not.

PUBG game was developed and published by PUBG Corporation, a subsidiary of the South Korean video game company Bluehole Studio. It is now held under a unified gaming brand named Krafton Game Union. The game software is protected by the copyright laws of the Republic of Korea. This game was banned in China in 2017 because the Chinese government found the game too violent. Subsequently, PUBG Corporation partnered with Tencent, which is said to be the Chinese biggest gaming company, and Tencent developed the mobile version of the popular battle royale game.
