PUBG Mobile fans have plenty to look forward to with the upcoming Version 4.5 update. The patch introduces a major collaboration with the Naruto Shippuden series, complete with a dedicated themed mode and a range of Naruto inspired rewards. Players can claim several free Naruto themed items simply by logging in daily and completing in game missions.

The update is scheduled to launch on July 9, 2026. Early beta testing has already given players a taste of the new content, and excitement is building across the community.

Free Rewards for Everyone

One of the most exciting parts of the collaboration is the focus on accessible rewards. Players do not need to spend money to enjoy some Naruto themed content.

  • Daily login rewards and event missions will grant free items such as collectible cards, themed accessories, and basic cosmetics.
  • A special pre update quiz event running until early July offers free rewards for completing simple missions and answering questions.
  • In game event hubs will feature Naruto specific challenges where players earn points through regular gameplay like kills and squad wipes.
  • Even the free track of the Prize Path system provides some rewards just by playing normally.

These options ensure casual players can still participate in the Naruto fun without opening their wallets.

New Naruto Themed Mode and Abilities

The highlight of Version 4.5 is the full Naruto Shippuden themed mode. This mode transforms gameplay with iconic ninja mechanics.

A new Chakra energy system powers special abilities. Players use Chakra for powerful Ninjutsu techniques and a unique Ninja Run feature that boosts speed, increases jump height, and even lets squads run across water.

Key abilities include:

  • Rasengan for powerful dashes and damage
  • Chidori for fast forward strikes
  • Flying Raijin Jutsu for teleportation with a thrown kunai
  • Multiple Shadow Clones that copy player actions
  • Substitution Jutsu for automatic escapes when health is low
  • Rare Reanimation Jutsu to bring back teammates

Themed consumables like Ichiraku Ramen restore Chakra instantly, while items such as Shuriken serve as melee or throwable weapons.

Character Skins and More

Nine iconic characters from the series will appear as outfit sets. These include Naruto Uzumaki, Sasuke Uchiha, Sakura Haruno, Hinata Hyuga, Gaara, Kakashi Hatake, Jiraiya, Tsunade, and Madara Uchiha. Most premium sets are available through the Prize Path and Lucky Spin systems, but free rewards and login bonuses will include smaller Naruto themed items like emotes, backpacks, and vehicle skins.

Additional collaborations with Spider Man and Ferrari are also expected later in the update cycle, but the Naruto content takes center stage at launch.

How to Get Started

Once Version 4.5 drops, open the in game event hub to check Naruto missions and login rewards. Complete daily and weekly challenges to progress through the Prize Path even on the free track. Stay active during the launch period for the best chance at limited time free items.

The PUBG Mobile team has confirmed the collaboration will bring one of the most feature rich crossovers yet. With free rewards available alongside deep gameplay changes, Version 4.5 promises to deliver ninja thrills for players of all levels.
