How to update PUBG Mobile Season 20 on Android

The Android OS overall allows more flexible routes for downloading, installing, or updating apps and games. It permits the use of the Android Application Package (APK) instead of just the conventional app store. However, using APK also comes with its own set of risks. Illicit providers may sneak viruses or malware into the files to break your devices from inside. Therefore, should you choose to use this method, make sure you know the source is reliable.

With that said, check out two following ways to update PUBG Mobile on Android devices:

#1. Google Play Store 

All Android phones have Google Play Store to download the apps, and you will also update the games from there. In facr, your devices should automatically update the game by default. However, in case you turn off the "Auto Update" feature, you'll have to update PUBG Mobile manually.

Things to note when updating PUBG Mobile

  1. When installing APK files, there may be errors stating problems with parsing the files. In that case, you will have to delete everything and try again.

Also, you can use APK files, too.
