PUBG MOBILE: Journeys of Influence, Love and Change

The world and its inhabitants have become part of one global village through digitization and the internet. The wonder of technology has, amongst many other things, impacted people and their lives in profound ways. Social media, e-gaming, streaming and a variety of other domains have transformed the way in which individuals earn and grow their careers too.

Gaming is one of the aspects of the modern revolution that is often criticized for numerous reasons. However, a variety of research articles have highlighted that games can have extensive effects on positive character building and improving cognitive skills within individuals. Studies have shown that video games play a part in improving 69% of psychological therapy, 42% of pain distraction, 59% of physical therapy, 42% of health education and 50% of physical activity outcomes.

However, there are much deeper personal and professional highlights in people’s lives due to gaming that often go unnoticed. From building careers and paths of financial independence, to bringing people together and binding them in beautiful relationships, games can make a substantial difference. PUBG MOBILE, one of the most frequently played games with a wide footprint across Pakistan, is one platform that has inspired extensive good within its community.

These impacts are visible in the lives of players and their families. Star Anonymous, one of Pakistan’s biggest PUBG MOBILE gamers and streamers with more than 2.3 million subscribers on YouTube alone, recently highlighted in a documentary how the game enabled him to achieve star status not just in the professional domain but within his household as well. Being an ordinary teenager from a not-too-well-off family, Star Anonymous rose through the ranks to conquer a feat that was seemingly impossible.

Muhammad Mubeen, known popularly as Star Anonymous, struggled from a young age. He highlights how he broke societal stereotypes which hinder dreamers, to challenge preconceived notions. His family, especially his father was never supportive of his ambitions. However, he continued with determination. At the end of the day, he was able to create a cult following, smashing the glass ceiling and building a life of fulfilment for himself, all through a simple activity, gaming.

Mubeen revealed that his father was angry at him when he first told him about his new activity. This was especially challenging after Mubeen had not performed well academically earlier. However, with time his perception changed. His orthodox mindset shifted drastically and today, he is proud of what his son has achieved.  

His journey is inspirational and thought provoking. The world has moved away from conventional roles in terms of profession. Doctors and engineers are no longer the only professions that the youth can explore. Mubeen is a personification of what the world of digital media and gaming can enable people to do. He is a representation of the way PUBG MOBILE influences life changing directions in people’s lives.

And it’s not just career paths that PUBG MOBILE is revolutionizing. It is also enabling people to find love amongst everything. NTD and Lily are a lively couple that share nearly 300,000 YouTube subscribers between them. The two found a mutual attraction for each other while playing PUBG MOBILE and the bond led to their engagement last year. For them, the game proved to be a platform beyond entertainment. It served as a portal to find their respective soulmates.

PUBG MOBILE is on a journey to revolutionize people’s lives and the community in general. As a brand, the game continues to inspire good and beauty across various aspects of society while encouraging people to play healthily. For all that it is worth, PUBG MOBILE is not just a game, it is an experience that is often life changing.
