How to Aim Down Sights in PUBG

Recommended Videos

The goal of PUBG is to survive, but if you don’t learn how to fight, you’ll just be shot in the back every time you leap from the plane. As such, you’ll want to learn the ins and outs of controlling your character so you’re prepared for any situation that comes your way. Here’s how to aim down sights to get a better view of your target.

There are two main camera views in PUBG. The first and most standard is third-person. This gives you a good view of your surroundings but makes it difficult to aim because the camera just zooms in slightly, unless you have a specific sight equipped. The alternative is using the first person mode by pressing V. This lets you aim down sights, gaining the ability to be much more precise with your shots. If you want to look down the sights in first-person in PUBG simply click the right mouse button and hold it, and use the left mouse button to fire your weapon. It’s just like in any FPS title, which is useful for hunting down the other players running across the map.

If you want to play in third-person and still utilize the precision you get when you aim down sights, all you need to do is double right click and hold on your mouse. This will let you aim down sights as long as you keep the mouse button held down. It’s a nice, easy way to combine the best parts of the game’s two playstyles.
