PUBG Mobile touts results of its Conservancy Event with 750k square feet of land protected

by Lucas Mar 16,2025

PUBG Mobile’s Play for Green initiative has yielded impressive results, showcasing gaming's surprising power for environmental good. The Conservancy Event, part of this initiative, saw 20 million players participate in the Run for Green, collectively sprinting a staggering 4.8 billion kilometers. This virtual exertion translated into real-world impact, protecting a remarkable 750,000 square feet of vital ecosystems across Pakistan, Indonesia, and Brazil.

The Play for Green campaign cleverly engaged players by showcasing the effects of climate change within the familiar ruins of Erangel across two distinct maps. While quantifying the impact of increased awareness around climate change is challenging, the tangible results of land preservation are undeniable. PUBG Mobile’s efforts have clearly made a difference, culminating in their well-deserved 2024 Playing for the Planet award. The strategic combination of engaging events and exclusive in-game rewards effectively incentivized participation and contributed to real-world conservation.

The campaign also deserves praise for its educational aspects. While many players participated for the in-game rewards, the initiative undoubtedly fostered increased awareness and understanding of climate change issues among a significant portion of its player base.
