Why is PUBG Mobile update not showing in PlayStore?

Officials at PUBG Mobile have pushed out the latest PUBG Mobile 0.18.0 update on the Google Play Store for Android and the App Store for iOS users; however, it is still not showing for certain users.

So, if you are one of the users who still can’t find the latest update on the respective application store, do not fret. This is because the update has been rolled out in a phased manner, meaning it is gradually being released to users. Additionally, with the heavy server loads, the update may deliver to different regions at a slower rate. This is essentially the only reason behind the new PUBG Mobile update not showing for certain users.
