As person that runs Linux as native operating system i myself wanted to find out the answer to one of the most frequent question that had been asked on the internet

Can PUBG Runs on Linux system ?

o i went into research mode for the pass couple of days trying to find answer, in which i finally reach to my conclusion , so Can PUBG runs on Linux system ? the answers is YES but after that YES i got to burst your bubble with the how, unfortunately PUBG can’t run directly on the Linux operating systems .

While we (i say we because am native Linux users) can’t run it directly on the operating system here are three options that will answer your question ” Can PUBG Runs On Linux System ?”

Running a Virtual Machine with windows installed.
Using cloud streaming services 1. Liguidsky
Using cloud streaming services 2. Paperspace

With the three option provided above you will face two major problem:

PUBG builds with Battleye anti-cheat technology in which will need to gain access to numerous windows level features which are inaccessible while using windows on a virtual machine, and if those condition are not met you’ll either be kicked out or banned by the anti-cheat perspective.
Using cloud streaming services – this is the most viable option for playing PUBG, but for Liquidsky and Paperspace to work you will need to obtain high speed internet connection to get a consistent, Lag-free gaming session from the cloud services provider you choose. The performance of these services isn’t that 100% but it still works. Keep in mind that you will be forced to play out a monthly subscription for accessing these kinds of services.

Will PUBG Be Ported To Linux in the Future?

While you can’t run PUBG directly on a native Linux OS right now, i think i would be delightful for you to know that PUBG may be ported to Linux in the future. Reason for this theory is that like most games in the past that had been ported to Linux environment they use Unreal Engine inside the core of the game architecture. Please keep in mind that the development team are deep in working on the Battlegrounds so they are very busy at this moment, so it make take some time before the game be ported to Linux, if it comes at all.

Final words

Can PUBG runs on Linux system? unfortunately it can’t runs directly on the Linux OS, alternative solutions are that you run PUBG on a online cloud streaming services. which will impact on performance level.

So if you have an good PC with the right hardware, i suggest that your partition your HDD (Hard Disk Drive) / SSD (Solid State Drive) in your computer system and install windows on it to do a dual boot and play PUBG.
