The next update for PUBG Mobile is almost here! 0.19.0 patch will go live on July 7, bringing with it a huge array of new modes and features. In this article, we would list out everything you need to know about the update.

1 – Maintenance Time and Update Size

Usually, before pushing out the new update, PUBG Mobile’s dev team would take down the game for maintenance for a few hours. However, this will not be the case this time. This is a big update – it is going to be pushed straight through the Google Play Store and App Store.

There would not be any downtime – players who completed the download would be able to access the game right away. The ones who are still inside the game would not be able to play with people on the latest version – they would also be booted out to the update screen afterward.

Here are what’s new in the next update:

  • New exclusive Livik Map: North European 2x2km map. 52 players would compete for survival in 15 minutes rounds.
