Free Fire and PUBG Mobile have sensationalized the battle royale genre among mobile games. However, unlike the latter, Garena's offering caters to a larger audience with lower resource requirements. Hence, many low-end device users can download and run it without hassle.
Compatibility issues with lower-end smartphones are also responsible for the underwhelming graphics quality of PUBG Mobile. Players can easily install and run Garena's flagship BR shooter, but to get an immersive and higher-end gaming experience, users need to move on to other alternatives.
Garena Free Fire: Top seven free-to-play BR shooters with better graphics
1) Free Fire MAX
The enhanced version of Garena's popular BR title, Free Fire MAX, was launched in September 2021. This variant has features akin to the original game with minimal variations in the in-game design and much better graphics quality that make the game a lot more immersive.
2) PUBG Mobile and its variants
PUBG Mobile, like Free Fire, has been wildly popular since its release. Both also feature similar BR modes, but the former boasts superior graphics. Additionally, the game also has far more realistic gameplay.
3) Call of Duty: Mobile
