Hello Survivors,

We’re a good chunk of the way into the new year and already things feel much more promising than the last. 2020 was a difficult year for many and we, like other developers around the world, found ourselves scrambling to adjust to a whole new way to work and create. Through the challenges, we’re proud that we were able to debut 3 new Battlegrounds; Karakin, Paramo, and Haven, while also shipping reworks of Vikendi and Sanhok. 2020 also saw the release of Team Deathmatch and Ranked Mode, along with a number of new weapons, tools, features, and vehicles. The world as a whole may not have had a great year, but we personally have much to be thankful for- especially you, our fans sticking with us through a complicated year of experimentation.

Your continued support and feedback give us tangible goals to work towards but funneling the feedback of a global audience into one update that satisfies everyone is never an easy task. One ongoing piece of feedback we’ve heard pretty universally though is the desire for us to give more focus to larger maps, especially after a year that focused largely on smaller ones. Here, in the first part of our 2021 Dev Plan, we’re going to reveal how we’re doing just that.

As we just mentioned, after experimenting and learning with smaller maps and their unique features during 2020, we’ve taken the time to refocus on what we know many of our core audience values the most. 2021 is the year of the large map and will be in more ways than one. Let’s start with some easy wins before we talk about our plans for new and shiny.




Miramar has been a map that’s needed love for a while now. Our last revamp went a long way to help the map out, bringing it into the PUBG universe with new aesthetics and matching lore elements, while fixing a few of the pain points that existed since its launch.

With Update 12.1, we'll be introducing a much larger remastering of Mirarmar, taking into account many of the new technologies we’ve employed in our newer maps, including lighting, performance, graphical fidelity, topography, and of course special features.



Expect to see big overhauls to terrain and building textures and layouts, easier traversal with the removal of unnecessary obstacles, and even updated cliffs to better fit in the more vertical experience the game has become.

Miramar's remaster will make it's way into the live server soon, so keep an eye out for more information.





Following the remastering of Miramar, comes the first new 8x8 Battleground in 3 years. Tiger will utilize all the aspects of the Battlegrounds that you’ve known over the years but with one key change; the ability to return to the battle after an initial defeat. This is a feature we’ve seen become fairly common in the Battle Royale genre and is something we’ve been asked about quite a bit, especially when it comes to duos and squads. If you’ve been paying attention, you’ll see we’ve experimented a bit recently with what respawning on a Battleground looks like and Tiger is a big reason why.

Besides respawns, new features never seen before in PUBG will continually be added to Tiger, so stay tuned!



The 8x8 goodness doesn’t end with Tiger. In late 2021/early 2022, our 4th 8x8 map will launch. Kiki will boast a diverse set of locations, from mysterious underground labs to massive skyscrapers to swampland to subways to underwater buildings - we’re looking at many different locations to thrill and challenge survivors in our most diverse and exploration focused Battleground yet. Planning for Kiki is still pretty early, but we’ll be back with more information later in the year.

We’re beyond excited to be getting back to business as usual in 2021. Not only as a global society, but as developers doing what we do best- huge 8x8 survival experiences to test even the most battle-hardened Survivors out there. Between Miramar, Tiger, and Kiki, you can look forward to a whole year worth of new and improved 8x8 content, always chock full of new weapons, vehicles, items, and plenty of PUBG’s signature style.

On behalf of everyone here, we’d like to thank you for your continued support and feedback. We’ll be back soon with part 2 of our 2021 Dev Plan, which will go over core gameplay and service. Thanks once again and we’ll see you on the Battlegrounds!

--The PUBG Dev Team

Hello PUBG Esports fans.

We received quite a bit of feedback following our announcement of the newly-introduced 2021 PCS ruleset. Your passion and honesty are always greatly appreciated and we want to continue the discussion regarding the concerns many of you had. Our goal with the changes is to elevate PUBG Esports for both the competitor and the viewer, so we’d like to take some time to talk about the update in a little more detail.

What you play is what you watch

Our aim with the updated ruleset is to bring PUBG Esports closer in line with the BattleRoyale gameplay experience. Winning is everything - whether you’re a solo, duos, or squads player, the Chicken Dinner is always the ultimate prize.

While the previous S.U.P.E.R. settings helped to establish a strong foundation for the competitive community by reducing some of the game’s more unpredictable elements, over time it has seen us move further away from the core concepts and objectives of Battle Royale. We’re eager to reduce the gap between what PUBG fans play, and what they watch.

There is something to be said about the sheer excitement that happens when a team wins a match. With the WWCD rules during PGI.S, we experienced many thrilling and adrenaline pumping moments throughout the tournament, and we want to maintain this feeling through future events.

How it Works

No change to the rules can be made without taking every step to maintain the element of fairness for our professional players.

Under the revised ruleset, some teams may be required to rethink their strategies and tactics, but across an increased number of matches per event, everyone will have a shot at earning a win. We’re raising the number of Grand Finals games played from 24 in PCS 2020 to 36 in PCS 2021.

Just like before, PCS events will host matches two days a week over a three week period - that means six match days in total. However, the following changes will be applied this time around:

• Each day will have six matches, increased from four, leading to 12 matches per week and 36 matches in total.
• Every week will be an individual league with prize money awarded to the top eight squads.
• The team with the highest amount of prize money at the end of the tournament will be crowned champions.

Each team faces the same challenge at the start of a match: be the last squad standing. And to be champions, they’ll need to prove that they have the mettle to capture Chicken Dinners consistently throughout the event.

Earn to win

As explained above, the top teams will earn prize money across three competition weeks. There’s $70,000 USD on the line each week, with an extra $20,000 reserved for the series winner.



Kill points will still play an important factor in the new system, as equally matched teams will be separated by their kills. It will be the key factor in deciding the final rank. The deadliest player will even receive a bonus award! We’ll have more details on these soon, so stay tuned.

Keep the feedback coming

We know that this new direction is a big shift from the current ruleset, and we understand the concerns shared so far. But as we look to grow PUBG Esports through 2021 and beyond, we’re excited to revisit the core elements that make Battle Royale such a fun and unique genre to watch as well as play, and we’ll be listening to your feedback as we journey to the PUBG Global Championship.

As always, our sincerest thanks to all the PUBG esports fans out there for your love and enthusiasm. We’ll be back soon with more information on PCS4!

PUBG Esports team.

Hello Survivors!

This round of PUBG LABS utilizes two different gameplay changes to create a frantic experience for squads on Paramo. The first of which is a 500% damage increase across the board for all weapons and throwables in order to create a one-shot-kill scenario. But fear not, though dying may be easy, so is getting back into the game!



In Respawn Royale, your defeated squadmates will automatically rejoin the fight after their 100 second death timer has counted down. All you need to do is stay alive as a squad until that happens! If at least 1 squad member is still standing when a player’s death timer completes, they will rejoin the fight but be careful - if your squad is wiped completely, you’ll all be eliminated from the match.



Respawn Royale takes place on Paramo with you and up to 7 other squads. To help keep the focus on the action, we’ve also eliminated weapon looting and added the choice of three different spawn kits. This kit can be changed each time you respawn, so keep an eye on the situation your remaining team members find themselves in. The Blue Zone will also still function as normal, so keep on the move!


In Respawn Royale, the damage of firearms, melee weapons, and throwables are increased by 500% in order to provide a one-shot one-kill experience.

• DBS
  • DBS with Holographic Sight
    • 12 Gauge x28
  • Deagle + Red Dot Sight
    • 45 ACP x7
  • 2 Smoke Grenades
• AWM
  • AWM with 3x Scope
  • .300 x35
• Crossbow
  • Crossbow with 4x Scope
    • Bolts x25
  • Ghillie Suit
  • Sawed-off
    • 12 Gauge x4

Once knocked out, you will immediately switch to spectating mode and a 100 second respawn timer will display on your screen. During this period, you will have the option to select which kit you wish to spawn with.

PUBG Update 11.2 has just dropped, bringing new changes to Erangel's infamous bridges, a new Survivor Pass, balance changes to recoil while riding in a vehicle and more!

First up, you'll notice Erangel's bridges to Sosnovka Island looking a bit different this update. Bridges have been slightly widened, had their cover layout changed slightly, and now have new catwalks to give players more options for engaging or avoiding bridge encounters.

Our new Survivor Pass embraces the outfits we've lived in this pandemic year and brings them to the Battlegrounds with Survivor Pass: Pajama Party. Pick up your pass and start unlocking your favorite work-from-home attire today!

Firing from vehicles has gotten a bit more challenging this update, with a 10% increase to recoil. The goal is to make driveby attacks a bit more difficult, but we'll continue to monitor success rates to see if we need to adjust it any more either way.

PUBG Labs is also launching a new game mode with this update! In Respawn Royale, every shot is lethal but death is not the end. As long as your squad survives long enough, you have a chance to respawn back in and continue the fight. Can your squad outlast and win?

There's plenty more in Update 11.2, so be sure to read the full patch notes for all the details. That's all for now and we'll see you on the Battlegrounds!

Update 11.2 is now live!

Our first Survivor Pass of the season has arrived, Survivor Pass: Pajama Party! Jump in-game to check out all the slumber party themed rewards, alongside a slew of new missions to complete as you progress through the pass.

Erangel, the original Battleground is receiving changes to both Military Island bridges, allowing you more options to mount your assault or set up defenses. For those who like to set up a tent and bridge camp (you know who you are), there’s now additional cover to make use of while you patiently wait for the “brrr” of that incoming enemy-loaded UAZ.

Multiple performance and quality of life improvements are included this update, alongside side a handful of bug fixes. Read on for all the changes, including balance adjustments to vehicle-shooting.





Late last year, we asked players which locations on Erangel could be improved, or otherwise changed to improve gameplay. After reading your responses across multiple platforms, including previous feedback and suggestions, this update we've focused on introducing changes to the main chokepoints between the Erangel mainland and Sosnovka Island; the East and West bridges.

This minor rework brings structural changes to the bridges and includes the addition of new defendable positions, in addition to catwalks underneath to help fend off attacks, including those from the water. These catwalks also double as a new avenue of attack to mount an assault on those pesky bridge-campers.

Give it a few rounds of play and let us know your thoughts!

• The two bridges connecting Sosnovka Island and the Erangel mainland have had major changes, including additional cover and widening of the bridges.

• Catwalks have been added, providing additional avenues to both defend and attack from.

• The dump truck has been repositioned.

Other Map Changes

• 4th Anniversary Graffiti Contest graffiti has been removed.

Turn your slumber party into a slaughter party with Survivor Pass: Pajama Party!

This pass kicks off our new way of releasing passes, which are no longer linked in time and theme to the season. This gives us more options for content, duration, and even how many passes we choose to release per year. The passes will still follow similar mechanics with missions and rewards, so pick yours up and start unlocking today!

• Survivor Pass: Pajama Party can be purchased within two different item packages.
  • PAJAMA PARTY WEAPON PACK (990 G-Coin).
    • Premium Pass + The Big Sleep - AUG weapon skin.
  • PAJAMA PARTY WEAPON AND LEVEL PACK (3270 G-Coin).
    • Premium Pass + The Big Sleep - AUG weapon skin + Lv.30 coupon.
• Survivor Pass: Pajama Party provides over 30 rewards as players progress through 50 levels.
  • You can earn XPs by playing matches and completing missions. Additional levels can also be purchased with G-Coin.
• Survivor Pass: Pajama Party has the following mission types.
  • Daily Missions, Weekly Missions, Challenge Missions.
• Survivor Pass: Pajama Party will begin on April 28th 11:00 KST and end on June 9th 11:00 KST.
  • Claim your rewards before the pass ends, as there is no-longer an additional grace period to claim rewards once the pass ends.
  • Don't forget to make use of your coupons in the Coupon Shop before the pass ends, as they're unable to be used afterwards.

Drive-by Shooting Balance Adjustment



Several patches ago, we implemented quality of life change to heavily improve stability and overall smoothness of aiming while in vehicles. As vehicles are a core part of our Battle Royale experience, we want to encourage vehicular combat, while also ensuring balance and allowing for proper counter-play.

Listening to all your feedback and digging through gameplay data, we have seen a greater rise in the effectiveness of drive-bys and overall vehicle to player gunplay than intended.

Our first step to address this is increasing weapon recoil in vehicles and we'll continue to closely monitor your feedback, so please, keep it coming!

• In-vehicle recoil has been increased by 10%.
  • This change does not apply to sidearms.

Since Update 10.2 when the Reputation System was introduced, we’ve been closely monitoring your feedback. We've looked closely at aspects of the system which have caused frustration and made additional changes to prevent players abusing the report mechanic, which had allowed players acting maliciously to lower another player’s reputation unfairly.

• Spamming multiple reports through the replays system no-longer unfairly impacts the targeted player’s reputation level compared to regular reports.
• Set an upper limit to the amount of reputation loss per match to prevent misuse, especially in situations where multiple pre-made squad members report their random teammate.

We have also made the following changes to speed-up how long it takes to improve your reputation with good behavior:

• Increased the potential number of reputation points available for player’s with reputation level 1 or below.
  • Also increased available reputation points for players at reputation level 4.

We expect these changes to improve your overall experience with the reputation system and allow us to better highlight players in the community who play by the rules and keep it friendly while doing so. Keep up the good work and please continue to share your feedback with us.

To prevent potential gaming of the system, we won't be sharing all details and intricacies of how reputation progression/loss functions.

• The Flash Hider model on the SLR has had major improvements to its visuals.

Having the option to deep dive into your replays and match history can be great to help analyze and improve your gameplay. We want to ensure these tools are simple to use and easy to understand. With that said, we've made improvements to both the Match History and Match Report screens which you can read about in more detail below.



Match History

• Improved the overall page design and rearranged certain elements for better visibility.
  • Increased size of the map images.
  • Improved icon design for Last 20 Match Stats details.
  • View Report is now displayed only when hovering over each match entry.
  • Your Placement Trend is now displayed as a line graph, rather than a bar graph to give a more clear picture of your results.
• Replaced Avg Kills with K/D Ratio.
• Added Assists to the list of recorded stats.
  • Assists have also been added to Match Reports.

• Improved client performance by disabling certain voice chat related features when voice chat is disabled.
• Improved client FPS stability through a reduction in hitches related to optimization work.
• Optimized CPU performance by adding additional multi-threaded rendering support.
• Optimized CPU performance through animation optimization.
• Optimized some server and client performance pipelines to reduce both server and client hitches.

Item Tier Adjustment

We have adjusted the tier of certain common, gray rarity items to improve consistency among similar item types. The adjusted items are now exchangeable for 60BP each.
This change has already been implemented as of Update 11.1, originally intended to be deployed with Update 11.2, but deployed in advance with a related bug fix by mistake.

End of Sales Announcement

The following items will be removed from the shop after maintenance on April 29! Grab'em while they're hot.

Hello PUBG Esports Fans!

For the majority of PUBG Esports so far, we’ve followed the Standard and Universal PUBG Esports Ruleset “S.U.P.E.R” with very few changes or deviations. During PGI.S, we adjusted the tournament format to place more importance on winning matches. Our overall goal with these changes was to bring back the intensity and accomplishment of being the last team standing, which has always been the heart of Battle Royale. We saw tons of excitement surrounding the Chicken Dinner focused matches and a new level of performance from our pro teams when they had a singular goal to focus on. With that in mind, we are making some changes to the winner decision method of our SUPER point system.

Here’s what will be changing in 2021:

Proposed SUPER Changes

• The winner of the match is the team who wins the Chicken Dinner
• The winning team of the Series will be determined by the number of Chicken Dinners won
  • In the event of a tie, total kills earned during the series will be used as a tiebreaker

We want the Chicken Dinner to mean something again since currently the winner is not always clear due to complicated score tallying, and this new system will ensure that a winner is determined as a match concludes. The moment of excitement should be when the game is won, not when the scoreboard pops up. These changes will take effect when PCS4 begins in June, however some regional preliminary matches will use different systems in order to give teams more time to prepare for the change.

As with everything, we’d love to hear your feedback on the new system once PCS4 wraps up. The current point system has served us well for a long time and definitely has legitimacy as an esports scoring system, we’d just like to get to a point where playing PUBG and watching PUBG Esports both evoke the same feelings without having to learn the teams you’re watching have different goals than your squads do.

Thanks for all the love and support you’ve shown PUBG Esports, especially during this last, very difficult year due to the pandemic. Your passion and excitement have helped us continue to put out fun and competitive esports events despite all the difficulties.

Here’s to another great year of PUBG Esports and we’ll see you all at PCS4!

What was the saying? Oh yes. Winner Winner Chicken Dinner. You Survivors revel in your victories over each other and still have the gall to drag us into it. Well, no more. You've been a pox on us for far too long and the bock stops here. This time, the chickens are the top of the pecking order.

Don't believe me? This is no eggaggeration. Just look at your precious game. We're already here, clucking up your social profiles. Once my fowl plan hatches and every last one of you has been beaten, well... let's just say it won't be chicken on the menu.

But, if you dare to challenge my Henerals and their armies, look for the arcade cabinet in your precious menus, but be warned- this battle isn't going to be over easy. You have until April 12th before your game is completely mine and if you think omletting you stop me, you're sorely mistaken.

For I am PlayerOmnom and these are my Battlegrounds now.
