Dev’s comment: As announced at the end of April, Erangel Classic makes its comeback with Update 29.2. We’ve redesigned the old Erangel map, providing players a chance to relive their memories, all while embracing the game’s modern enhancements. While realistic recoil adds to the game’s distinctive charm, it has posed a challenge for newcomers. With the gunplay reminiscent of the past, we hope Erangel Classic will evoke memories of the early PUBG days.

World: Rondo

※ The following features are available only in Rondo.

New Item: Zipline Gun

Meet the Zipline Gun, a zippy new travel tool that lets you navigate Rondo in a whole new way.

• Inventory slot: Secondary Weapons
• Ammo: Zipline Gun Cable
  • Weight: 2
  • Reload time: 3 seconds
  • World spawns along with the Zipline Gun.
  • The Zipline Gun cannot be used without the Zipline Gun Cable.
• To deploy a zipline using the Zipline Gun, launch the cable sequentially to any two points of your choice.
• Ziplines can be placed on buildings, terrain, and stationary, indestructible objects.
  • Cannot be placed on characters, vehicles, Care Packages, or water.
  • Cannot be installed if there are objects in the cable launch path or if the two points are in opposite directions.
• An installed zipline can be used up to four times.
• The Zipline Gun cannot be used inside a vehicle.
• Interacting with an installed zipline will enable you to move in the direction you’re facing.
  • Mid-journey release can be initiated by hitting the Interaction key again.
  • When multiple players use a zipline, you can only move in the same direction as the player already using it, and you’ll wait to prevent overlapping.
  • SMGs or Handguns can be used while riding the zipline.
• You can use the Limited Interaction key to retrieve cables installed by yourself or other players.
• When a cable has been installed at the first point, jumping off a cliff, colliding with or riding a vehicle, swapping/unequipping the weapon, or rotating beyond a specific angle will retrieve the cable.
• The travel speed depends on the slope of the zipline.
• Can be stored in the trunk of a vehicle.
• If a vehicle collides with an installed zipline, the zipline will be destroyed.
• Installed ziplines are not destroyed by explosions.
• World spawns.
• Available in Normal Match and Custom Match.

Dev’s comment: Open up a whole new dimension of map navigation and engagement with Rondo’s latest addition, the Zipline Gun. Locations that were previously difficult to reach can now be infiltrated and ambushed via a zipline deployed at your chosen spot. We hope that the introduction of the Zipline Gun will allow for a broader array of strategies and engagements in Rondo, ultimately enriching the game’s meta with increased diversity.

In-Game Challenges

To make teamwork easier, we’re improving In-game Challenges based on player feedback.

• From the challenge list shown on the left side of the world map, you can now share challenges with your teammates via Radio Message.

New Feature: Win Streak Showdown

Introducing Win Streak Showdown, where premade teams compete in Normal Match for achievements beyond the Chicken Dinner.

How to Participate

• Enable the Win Streak Showdown option located under the Select Game Mode panel in the Play – Normal tab.
  • A premade team is required to enable Win Streak Showdown.
  • You cannot invite or join teammates while Win Streak Showdown is in progress.
  • Only Quick Join is available.
  • Win streak will reset if you deactivate Win Streak Showdown.
• Win Streak Showdown can still be continued when a teammate leaves, even if there is only one remaining player on the team.
• Once all teammates are ready, Win Streak Showdown matchmaking begins to search for opponents. When an opposing team is found, Normal Match matchmaking will begin.
  • Canceling matchmaking after the opposing team has been found will result in an automatic loss and reset the win streak.

Rules

• The result of Win Streak Showdown is determined by the sum of your Kill points and Placement points earned from the match.
  • You will earn one point per kill, with additional points awarded based on the team’s placement.
• Both teams’ scores in real-time are displayed in the top left corner of the screen.
• When your entire team is eliminated, you have the option to spectate the opposing team.
• The Win Streak Showdown result is available in the lobby after the match.
• You cannot proceed to the next Win Streak Showdown match until the outcome has been decided.
• If the next Win Streak Showdown match is not completed within 2 hours of achieving at least 1 win, the Win Streak Showdown will end.
  • The team will be retained but your win streak will reset.

Rewards

• You’re automatically rewarded for your win streak at the end of the match, and details can be found on the Match Results page.
• The rewards for each consecutive win can only be earned once every 7 days, and your reward history and win streak will reset every Wednesday 12 AM (UTC).
• Achieving a win streak and placing first in the same match will grant Perfect Match rewards.
  • Perfect Match reward is obtainable maximum three times per week.

Dev’s comment: Until this point, the primary objective has been securing that Chicken Dinner, yet in reality, only a select few players achieve this goal in each match. Introducing the Win Streak Showdown feature, we aim to provide the majority of players who don’t clinch the Chicken Dinner with a fresh, rewarding new pursuit: the win streak. Pursue consecutive victories, enhance your skills and teamwork, and reap rewards, all while vying for the Chicken Dinner! 

Arcade

※ The following updates apply to Custom Match as well.

Team Deathmatch

• New Map: Liana
  • Introducing Liana, our latest map exclusively designed for Team Deathmatch! Designed to promote diverse combat opportunities, Liana caters to an array of gunplay styles. Players will encounter a complex network of intersecting routes, bridging varied locations such as the outskirts with a sea view, wide roads, Underpass, Studio, Cafe, Midway, and more.
  • Several elevated areas, including most rooftops, are inaccessible.
• Respawning in unfavorable locations has been improved.
• Two new Rondo maps – Warehouse and Suburbia – have been added.
• The Field and Shipyard maps, identified as having high leave rates, have been removed.
• Map selection probabilities have been readjusted in alignment with these changes.

Intense Battle Royale

• Random maps where Safe Zones, vehicles, and Supply Drops spawn differently compared to existing maps have been added.
  • Random maps and existing maps will each make up 50% of the total map appearances.
• Maximum number of players: 16 → 20
• Two new Rondo areas added.

Dev’s comment: We launched Intense Battle Royale with the hope that it would live up to its name, offering an intense gameplay experience for Battle Royale enthusiasts. However, as time passed since its initial release and players grew familiar with each map, the intensity and randomness that makes Battle Royale so appealing seemed to fade. With this update, we’re injecting a dose of randomness by incorporating random maps into Intense Battle Royale. This addition of unpredictability aims to revive the freshness of each gameplay session.
