Battle royale games come in all shapes and sizes, but the goal is the same: survive. Here are 10 games like PUBG that’ll have you hooked.
In battle royale games, it’s all about being the last person alive. Ironically, when it comes to picking which game to play, there are a plethora of choices. So which battle royale games like PUBG — an icon of the genre — are the best?
Thankfully, there’s a battle royale game to suit just about any style of play, each adding its own tweak to the classic recipe. So without further ado, let’s check out 10 of the very best battle royale games you can get.
Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare
CoD is without doubt a cultural phenomenon. Of course, it’s famous for being a first-person shooter, but in Warzone, you can also get your battle royale fix.
The complex, labyrinthine world of CoD comes into its own as a battle royale experience. Keep in mind that while you can buy Modern Warfare and access Warzone through the game, you can also just play Warzone for free.
Apex Legends
Apex Legends is a huge name in this space. A deep experience awaits you, with a focus on strategy and a massive cache of weapons (not to mention exciting ways to use them), you’ll never tire of this universe.
It also expands and shrinks to suit your taste. You can jump into a classic battle royale scenario with 60-player matches or more focused 3-vs-3 round-based battles.
GTA Online: Motor Wars
If you like your battle royale games to have a little more car-based chaos in them, you’ve come to the right place. Motor Wars ramps up your heart rate to the max while you try to avoid annihilation by fucked-up weaponised vehicles.
It ain’t no picnic, but of all the games like PUBG on this list, it’s probably the most fun in terms of the variety of weapons you’ll come across.
ARK: Survival of the Fittest
If you love battle royale games, but also have a soft spot for Jurassic Park, ARK: Survival of the Fittest is your happy place. Yep, deadly creatures abound, but you can tame them and harness their powers.
It definitely adds a novel layer to the battle royale formula; they say you shouldn’t bring a knife to a gunfight — but what about a pterodactyl? If it’s half as fun as the trailer looks, you won’t be disappointed.
CRSED: F.O.A.D.
If realistic weaponry is your jam, you’ll find it hard to resist the charms of CRSED: F.O.A.D. Take your pick of seven characters (each has a unique superpower) and get your ass to the centre of the battlefield!
It also satisfies the sticklers of aesthetic detail, as you can clad your champion in your choice of costume, right down to the underwear. This game is steadily increasing in popularity, so you can be assured that new content will flow regularly.
Rules Of Survival
Rules of Survival is a battle royale game on steroids. Why? You can jump into the arena with 120 of your closest mates, making it one of the most epic battle royale games out there.
To accommodate this mayhem, the map is a leviathan. While that might seem to give you plenty of safe space, it’s always diminishing as poison gas infiltrates the environment. If that doesn’t get you, there’s plenty of opponents shooting at you too!
Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout
Need a break from all that lethal combat? Do you just wanna play something a bit, well, cute? Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout will satisfy those wholesome cravings.
Don’t get me wrong, it’s still basically a chaotic free-for-all, but one that is easily accessible by anyone who picks it up. Slapstick fun for all ages.
Spellbreak
With its beautiful animation and several battlemage classes to choose from in order to concoct spells, Spellbreak offers up a decidedly different experience compared with most other battle royale games.
With a focus on tactical awareness and superiority, Spellbreak continues to evolve from an already sophisticated game. Definitely one to keep an eye on.

Totally Accurate Battlegrounds
Ok, we’re probably stretching the definition of games like PUBG a little with this inclusion. But at the same time, Totally Accurate Battlegrounds is pretty hard to resist, if only for its comic value.
Also known as TABG, it’s quite literally a battle royale game like no other. If you like wobbly physics, parkour, and not taking yourself too seriously, you won’t regret playing it.
Fortnite
And finally, we come to the big daddy of them all. Fortnite, like PUBG, is an all-encompassing sensation that swept the world upon its launch in 2017.
Its development as a battle royale game owed much to PUBG; Fortnite’s developers Epic Games saw the success of PUBG and created a battle royale epic of its own. The rest, as they say, is history. Now up to season 8, titled Cubed, the franchise continues to go from strength to strength.
