BGMI and Free Fire are currently the two most-played battle royale titles in the country. The latter was launched in 2017, and since then, it has been loved by many. On the other hand, Krafton launched the exclusive Indian version of PUBG Mobile in July after the ban of the global iteration in the country last year.
Being from the battle royale genre, both games center around eliminating all opponents and surviving until the end. However, there are significant differences between them regarding realistic gameplay and graphics. Some players are still confused about which one performs better on 2 GB RAM devices after the latest updates.
