Dev Comment

Hello players, PUBG: BATTLEGROUNDS Team here.

A week ago, we introduced our change to map services for the #20.1 patch. In the Normal Match pool, Miramar was to be replaced with Deston.

We’d first like to share our intentions on this change.

As we monitor graphs on players’ map preference in all regions, we were able to see that players preferred Deston over Miramar. Also, the dodge rate in Miramar was confirmed to be highest in regions with random map selection, while the pick rate for Miramar in regions that had the map selection feature were extremely low during Update 19.1 and 19.2.

Therefore, our decision to replace Miramar with Deston in Normal Matches were mainly based on the data above.

Additionally, we indeed planned to include Miramar back in to the Normal Match pool as a rotation map in #20.2 so players would be able to practice matches in Miramar before heading over to Ranked.

However, as we monitored your feedback on the Patch Notes, we realized we hadn’t relayed this information thoroughly enough beforehand. We understand your opinions on how it’d be difficult to practice new things in a Ranked map that isn’t included in Normal Matches, and we also saw that our intentions and the service our players wanted to experience did not line up.

Therefore, we’ve decided to have the map rotation for #20.1 exclude Deston and add Miramar back in instead.

  • Console (Xbox, PlayStation®, Stadia)
    • Normal Match: Erangel / Miramar / Taego / Sanhok / Karakin
    • Ranked: Erangel / Miramar / Taego

We plan to align our future map services with every aspect of Normal, Ranked, and Esports matches, and to actively reflect our players’ opinions to future updates.

Thank you.

Dev Comment

The Vertical Foregrip shows strong performance and receives much love from our players – which is quite obvious, as the attachment definitely helps control vertical recoil and accuracy when firing at long range.

However, we didn’t want to sustain a meta where everyone uses the same attachment and repeating similar combat styles every match. Therefore, we’ve decided to buff other attachments based on their individual, unique traits.

We’ll of course continue to monitor your plays after this balance update and make sure we’re providing more options and room for possible tactics moving forward.

Additionally, we’ve also noticed that the current in-game terms of the attachments’ features (such as weapon steadiness) could be much clearer – so we’re also planning to polish up some of the terms very soon.
Using vehicles to fight enemies has great merits (and is a lot of fun). You can move so much faster and find yourself being able to hurl relatively stable shots at enemies running for their lives barefoot.

So we’ve received lots of feedback from players facing major disadvantages on foot, such as getting barraged by a horde of ammo from moving vehicles and ending up dying too fast.

Therefore, after many tests on in-vehicle recoil control and thoughts on how we could reduce these one-sided situations in a healthy direction, we’ve decided to balance vehicle gameplay as the following based on your feedback:

• Driver’s Seat
  • Reloading handguns will be instantly canceled if the driver controls the vehicle’s steering wheel.
    • Therefore, players can reload handguns when the vehicle is moving in a single direction only.
  • Handgun reload duration in the vehicle has increased by approximately 50%.
  • Handgun recoil has increased by approximately 20%.
    • This recoil update only applies to PC.

Dev Comment

Since players in the vehicle driver’s seat are able to reload handguns while driving and receive considerable protection from the vehicle at the same time, one-sided combats were quite common against vulnerable players on foot. Therefore, we’ve decided to make these balance updates to firing from moving vehicles.

• Passenger Seats
  • Weapon recoil increased by approximately 10%. (Total recoil: 10% → 20%)
    • This recoil update only applies to PC.

Dev Comment

A vehicle with fewer passengers naturally has greater disadvantages when it’s attacked by a full-packed vehicle. It is also difficult to flee from combat due to similar movement speed among most vehicles. So we’ve also added a slight nerf to the passenger seats.

• 8x Scope and 15x Scope
  • To have ARs not capable of full-auto more useful, Scopes 8x and higher are now attachable to M16A4 and Mk47 Mutant.
  • 8x Scopes added to M16A4 and Mk47 Mutant spawn kits in Arcade – Team Deathmatch.
• 4x Scope Reticle Type

• Added 3 reticle types to the 4x Scope to allow you to freely select and use your preferred type:
  • Press Page Up, Page Down buttons for PC and Settings for Console to switch between reticle types.

Begin your new competitive endeavor among the best at Season 20 of Ranked!

• The leaderboard will reset after the Live Server maintenance.
• Check out your final Tier from the previous season at the Career page.

Below are the rewards you’ll be receiving based on your final Tier from the previous Ranked season.

• TheParachute skin and Medals are permanent rewards.
• The rest of the obtainable rewards are available for use during a single Ranked season.
• Rewards can be found in your Inventory once Season 20 starts.
• Once Season 20 is over and the server undergoes maintenance, every reward but the Parachute and Medal will be withdrawn from your Edit Profile page.

• Celebrating the upcoming PGC 2022 with the newly added Esports objects such as flags, billboards, and building decorations scattered throughout Erangel, Taego, and Miramar!

• Safe Zone
  • Phase 1
    • Radius Rate (size of the circle compared to the previous one): Increased by approximately 30%.
    • Start delay: 150s → 180s
  • Phase 2
    • Radius Rate: Increased by approximately 15%.
    • Damage Magnifier per Distance: Increased by approximately 6%.

Dev Comment

Players seemed to be dying more often in the Blue Zone compared to other maps, so readjustments were made to the Safe Zone as above.

• O12
  • Can now attach 2x Scopes to 6x Scopes.
    • 2x Scopes to 6x Scopes added to the O12 spawn kit in Arcade – Team Deathmatch.
• Changing Weather
  • Now available to use in Custom Matches.

• Continuing with the Safe Zone update above, we’ve also decided to readjust the Jammer Pack to the following:
  • The Blue Zone damage the Jammer Pack receives increased by approximately 27%.
• The Jammer Pack can only be found as a world spawn item in Miramar, Karakin, Haven, and Deston.

• Sunset weather has been added.
  • Available in Normal and Custom Matches.

• Preset Feature Improvements
  • Preset slots from 1 to 5 will now be shown as tabs on the Wardrobe page.
    • The first slot will be set as default.
    • As usual, you can unlock the second preset slot with rewards obtained through the Survivor Pass. The third to fifth preset slots can also be opened with coupons purchasable at the Store.
  • Pressing a preset tab will automatically show a preview of your character equipped.
• Preview
  • Previews will be shown for each body part.
  • You can click once to Preview and re-click to unequip the Preview.
  • (PC) +/- icons are provided to equip/unequip items.
  • (PC) You can select various items to test out various combinations beforehand.
  • (PC) Your customized preview will maintain its state even when you flip through different item categories.
    • It will reset to its original state when you switch between preset slots or if you exit the Wardrobe page.

• Carry
  • The Carry feature can now be used/canceled with the Limited Interact keys.
    • Limited Interact default keys
      • PC: H
      • Xbox/Stadia: LB + X
      • PlayStation®: L1 + ▢
    • You can also choose to customize your keys in Settings.
  • The following bug fixes/improvements have been made when using Carry during certain situations such as:
    • Carrying a moving, knocked out player
    • Using Carry while moving
    • Using Carry while both players are moving
      • However, you can not carry a knocked out player while sprinting.
    • Putting down a player in an area that clearly has enough space
    • Experiencing delay after pressing the Carry key

Dev Comment

We’ve received many feedback on how the fixed keybinding of the Carry feature was causing many inconveniences, so we’ve transferred its key to the Limited Interact key and also improved several Carry-related bugs that affected gameplay.

• Screen Ping Marker
  • The screen ping marker will now look more transparent the closer a player/weapon crosshair is to the marker.
  • The marker will be automatically removed after 30 seconds.
  • Screen ping markers that were only available in Normal Matches are now available in Ranked matches as well.

Dev Comment

The update on the screen ping marker above was based on the feedback that the screen ping marker hindered players’ field of view and aim due to the marker’s consistent transparency. Additionally, many players wished there was a limited duration to the marker once it was made and the screen ping marker’s implementation to other modes.

• Radio Message
  • New Inventory-related Radio Messages have been added.
    • Alert the number of a certain item in your vicinity or Inventory.
      • Inventory: “I have 1 Energy Drink.”
      • Vicinity: “Found 1 Energy Drink here.”
    • Let teammates know if you’ve equipped or need a specific item/attachment/weapon.
      • “Equipped/Equipping 1 2x Scope.”
      • “Need low-magnification Scope.”
    • Default keys are Wheel Click for PC and L Button for Console, but you can also customize keys in the settings.

Dev Comment

The current Radio Messages do not seem to have enough flexibility for various situations, so we’ve added new Radio Message options to let you quickly communicate about your item situation. Let your teammates know what you currently possess, what items you need, and more!

Hello players!

We’ve been working hard to improve the gunplay experience of PUBG: BATTLEGROUNDS by adding new weapons and constantly updating the weapon balance. Our work continues today to provide a more enjoyable experience by providing various gunplay options while maintaining realistic gunplay and core fun.

Through this announcement, we want to discuss our gunplay development’s future direction and goals for PUBG: BATTLEGROUNDS. So let’s get started, shall we?


Starting in 2022, we have set the theme of future gunplay development as diversity and opportunity. As you play PUBG: BATTLEGROUNDS, you will face the moments where you have to make choices, which will significantly impact your match results. Therefore, we want to diversify the range of options and increase the opportunities for making choices.

Of course, the current PUBG: BATTLEGROUNDS will maintain realistic gunplay and core fun. In addition, we want to create more opportunities by raising the performance of various weapons instead of nerfing them. We will also increase the frequency of updates to respond quickly to player feedback.

We need to provide players with an experience that allows them to choose and learn from various weapons, and we believe that diversity and opportunity are essential to gunplay. Ultimately, diversity and opportunity will lead to a fun gunplay system. Moreover, we seek to find new chances in player communication. 
The core play of PUBG: BATTLEGROUNDS is a continuation of choosing where to land, how to enter the blue zone, what guns to use, and how to run the game to get the chicken dinner. When it comes to choosing guns, 7.62mm guns have been prevalent over other options, and we think this was because of the lack of alternatives. 




The development team recognized that the bias towards the 7.62mm guns was severe. Since then, we have analyzed the indicators from 2021 and tried to improve the issue with the highest priority. If players only had to use some relatively powerful guns, they won’t be able to experience different types of gunplay and the joy of selecting guns. Therefore, as mentioned earlier, we want to stop nerfing powerful guns and start upgrading other relatively weak ones to create new positions. 

The buff of 5.56mm guns carried out in the first half of 2022 is a typical example. Also, the M416 rollback, which the community has requested for a long time, was applied. Starting with the Mk12, 5.56mm DMRs have received a significant increase in stats so that 5.56mm guns can compete with 7.62mm guns. As a result, the current use and win rate of 5.56mm guns have increased compared to the beginning of 2022.   

However, a significant gap remains. Therefore, we aim to see even usage rates for both guns. We’re not only focusing on gun rebalancing but an overall update that will cover 2023. So, please look forward!

Currently, we are focusing on primary weapons such as AR, DMR, and SR to stabilize the gunplay meta. However, other weapons with relatively low usage, such as SMGs, shotguns, and pistols, will also receive an improvement in the future. For example, after the shotgun buff in December of last year, the shotgun has been widely used in the early stages of match melee combat or engagement situations when clearing buildings.

Again, we plan to extend these updates to all weapons, bringing weapons’ individuality and unique playstyle. The introduction of new gunplay elements will create an environment where unpopular weapons can have an advantage depending on the situation and compatibility. Of course, primary weapons like AR, DMR, and SR will still be at the heart of the meta and will be of the utmost importance.


The next option in gameplay that follows is attachments. Unfortunately, we also have high usage rates for specific attachments. To improve the situation, we will enhance the concept and characteristics of each attachment so that players will select different types of attachments depending on the conditions.

In addition to the Heavy Stock introduced in Update 19.2, we plan to adjust the grip balance in Update 20.1. The already powerful Vertical Foregrip will have a utility nerf, and the rest will receive a direct recoil/utility buff. Especially we expect a significant performance increase for Light, Thumb, and Angled grips. 

Also, various updates, including scope-related improvements and riding shot balance are prepared for stable gun play. For detailed specifications, please check out the Update 20.1 Patch Notes.
To have players use many different types of weapons, it is a good idea to provide a wide variety of weapons to choose from. In addition, we will also provide players with new content.

We want to add some popular new guns that can be widely selected in all maps and modes along with continuous balancing. Of course, we won’t forget to add some funky weapons, so please look forward!

In addition to the guns and attachments, we envision new play mechanics. For example, adding modes, we have introduced through the Labs in the past, like Thermal Scope Mode. Or adding resistance to certain weapons and new ways of attacking opponents. We are researching and developing new content to elevate the sense of control and completeness to a high level. In particular, we plan to put more effort into balancing weapons so they do not harm the current weapon ecosystem.
One of the new goals of PUBG: BATTLEGROUNDS gunplay is to increase communication with players about gunplay’s directions and update them accordingly. We believe active communication is needed more than ever to enhance the gunplay experience with the new theme of diversity and opportunity.

Conveying a clear direction for gunplay development through Dev letters would be the first step. In the future, we want to continue our development by communicating with players from all regions playing different types of modes. We are also exploring ways to listen more from our official partners and esports players and apply them to the game.
We think gunplay is the core gameplay among the various elements that make up PUBG: BATTLEGROUNDS. Therefore, gunplay development requires much validation and effort not to compromise fairness and stability. As our ultimate goal is to have fun and balanced gunplay, we don’t think it will be simple and done within a few patches. 

We learned that we need a lot of feedback and interest from our players during our development towards improving equal and fair gunplay. 

We’re always looking for ways to improve the game without affecting the core feel players have gotten used to, so we hope you’re as pleased with these changes as we are. As always, we look forwards to your feedback, and we’ll see you on the Battlegrounds!

Thank you.

Therefore, we've placed permanent bans on the accounts pertaining to these fraudulent transactions.

As such misconducts cause negativity to everyone's gaming experience, certain account and service restrictions may apply based on our Terms of Service and Rules of Conduct.

If your account received any restrictions/bans when you've not done any fraudulent transactions, please submit a ticket to PUBG: BATTLEGROUNDS Support and we'll reach out to you as soon as possible.

Lastly, we kindly remind every player to understand and comply with our Terms of Service and Rules of Conduct for a fair and enjoyable gaming experience.

PUBG: BATTLEGROUNDS Team

Hello PUBG Esports fans!

We have previously announced that the PUBG Global Championships will return for 2022, yet were light on details. Despite PCS7 competition being in full swing, we would like to take a brief moment to announce what fans can expect afterwards and give some insight into how we plan to end the year (spoiler…it’s going to be with a bang).

Same Exciting PUBG Action, New Location

The adrenaline of PUBG Global Championships returns Nov. 1-20 as the top 32 teams from across four regions descend unto Dubai for a chance to compete for and win part of the $2,000,000 prize pool. As with years past, fans and players can expect the prize pool to increase further as 30% of the profits earned from upcoming to-be-announced PGC 2022 items will be added directly to the overall prize pool.

Participating Squads

The top 32 teams will be made up of 12 squads from Asia, eight from Europe, six from APAC, and another six from the Americas region. The confirmed list of participating teams will be determined based on final PGC Qualification Points, which have been acquired throughout the year, with PCS7 being the last opportunity for squads to prove their mettle.

Tournament Format Preview

Similar to last year, this year’s final PUBG Esports event will include a series of weekly tournaments that break out into a Group Stage, Winners/Losers Bracket, and Grand Survival to determine the top 16 teams of the Grand Final. These final squads will compete against each other in the Grand Final to fight for the right to call themselves the PGC 2022 Grand Champions.

PGC 2022 will be partnering with a wider initiative called the Dubai Esports Festival, which takes place from Nov. 9-20 and features a variety of events and activities meant to push the esports industry forward. We will be back with more detailed update on PGC 2022 soon before the PCS7 begins. Until then, for the latest PUBG Esports news, visit pubgesports.com and don’t forget to follow @pubgesports on social media.
