Due to content restrictions on violence in China, a restricted version of PUBG called Game for Peace was released in the country in 2019. Within the game, players have the ability to buy in-game currency which they can then use to purchase crates containing weapon customizations and character upgrades. Mobile player spending of PUBG has seen a steady increase in recent quarters and was estimated at 709 million U.S. dollars in the first quarter of 2021.
