- The game includes core features like real-time 5v5 battles, beginner-friendly controls, smarter AI, fair gameplay, and more.
- The devs haven’t shared any specifics for the lite version or its global launch.
MOONTON Games has announced the soft launch of Mobile Legends: Bang Bang Lite (MLBB), a lighter version of their massively popular MOBA. This version is now available on Android in Algeria, Egypt, Nigeria, and South Africa.
Immerse yourself in a lighter, yet thrilling experience with Mobile Legends: Bang Bang Lite (MLBB)
Mobile Legends: Bang Bang Lite is the new 5v5 MOBA experience, designed to be a lighter, smoother version of the classic MLBB everyone loves. It seems like this version is made to offer the same intense gameplay, but optimized for low-end devices, kind of like how other popular titles have done in the past.
MOONTON Games hasn’t officially shared many specifics about this version yet, One Reddit user pointed out, “The graphics look similar with the low settings, but what makes it lite is the interface.” I don’t think its main focus is saving storage, since it’s only 2GB smaller.
I’ve been playing MLBB since 2019 across various devices, from low-end to high-end, and honestly, I’m super happy about this. My current phone, a low-end Motorola, struggles to run the game smoothly, so the idea of having a lite option is exciting for me. I hope they succeed and roll it out globally soon.
The game includes core elements with the same 10-second matchmaking and 10-minute matches
The good news is the lite versions keep the core stuff, like you can take part in real-time 5v5 battles, beginner-friendly controls, smarter AI, and the “fair gameplay” MLBB is known for; you know what I mean. It also promises fast 10-second matchmaking and 10-minute matches like the original.
Anyway, this approach can be fruitful for MLBB, especially since they’ve recently reached 1.5 billion registered players. With this lite version, they can reach even more players who don’t own top-tier devices but still love the game. Plus, the regions it soft-launched also hint at this idea.
