Melee

Learn the essential melee controls for PUBG: Battlegrounds on PC, Xbox, and PlayStation. Master close-quarters combat with our comprehensive guide.

This guide details the controls for melee actions in PUBG: Battlegrounds across different platforms. While direct melee combat is less common than firearm engagements, understanding how to quickly equip and use melee weapons or perform basic attacks can be make-or-break in specific situations.

Action	Keyboard/Mouse	Console - Xbox One	Console - PS4
Equip Melee	4		N/A
Holster Weapon (to use fists/equipped melee)	X	(Hold)	N/A
Open/Close/Get-in/Get-out/Pickup (can be used for basic melee interaction)	F		N/A

Note: Specific melee weapon attacks are typically performed with the primary fire button (Left Click on PC, Right Trigger on consoles) when a melee weapon is equipped. The 'F' key (or equivalent console button) is often used for interactions like opening doors or picking up items, which can sometimes precede a melee engagement.
