PUBG Mobile 1.0 Official Patch Analysis

With PUBG Mobile cutting ties with Tencent, giving PUBG Corps. full control, the game might come back to India sooner than you would have expected. The 1.0 patch has been released today on the global server. In this article, we would list out everything you need to know about PUBG Mobile's biggest update of the year.

1 - New Classic mode map: Erangel 2.0

This is an overhaul of almost everything on Erangel, from water, land, sky to vegetation - they are all more realistic and detailed. The structure of various buildings has been changed - Mylta Power, Quarry and Prison get new layouts. Various new objects like trenches, abandoned tanks, and wooden barricades are also added into the game world, providing more immersive gameplay.

2 - Livik Improvements

A new shotgun named M1014 is added. It is a semi-automatic gun with the ability to fire continuously without having to reload, unlike the usual shotguns. The M1014 can be improved further using the Muzzle or Bullet Loop - creating the most powerful shotgun ever released in PUBG Mobile. This gun would only spawn on Livik and Arena mode, of course.

Various visual improvements were made on the map.

Finally, there is an Advanced communication tower that could revive dead players as well.
