PUBG MOBILE: Version 3.0 Beta Update Announcement

The Version 3.0 beta update is expected to begin on December 7, 2023!

• Update Plan Overview

Note: As the beta does not have regularly scheduled updates, the specific availability of gameplay depends on when the beta is actually updated with it.

• Key Content 1: Improved Beta Match Environment (Available from 12/9)

Our strategy for combatting malicious behavior in the beta has been improved! PUBG MOBILE will impose strict penalties on all malicious users, including cheaters, to provide a safe and fair game environment for all beta players!

• Key Content 2: Basic Experience Improvements (Available from 12/7)

1. Character Improvements: Improved the overall movements for running, climbing, falling, aiming down sights, and more for smoother character actions and a better gaming experience.
2. Bolt Action Sniper Rifle Improvements: Shots can penetrate vests and bodies to damage multiple enemies in the bullet's trajectory. Damage is reduced after going through an enemy. Shots from bolt action sniper rifles reduce the durability of vests and helmets more.
3. Vehicle Improvements: Drivers can apply bandages or use energy consumables to heal without interrupting their driving (Med Kits and First Aid Kits cannot be used).

• Key Content 3: Metro Royale (Available from 12/8)

1. New Map: It features a snowy environment with military features. It is a ring-shaped map with a military fortress at its center.
2. New Mechanics: Tactical Alarm item that can be placed, snowy weather, advanced supply secret rooms accessible after a certain time, and vertical ziplines to ascend quickly.
3. Added 2 new bosses and a group of PvE enemies:
4. 1. The Commander boss has a skill that slows players.
   2. The Tank boss will use different attacks depending on distance.
   3. The group of PvE enemies includes an Elite enemy with a pack of dogs that share a collective hostility toward players. When any member of the team detects a player, an alert will be issued. The entire team will then track and attack the player.
4. New High-Pressure Air Rifle (available in beta 2): Fires steel balls using compressed air. The higher the chamber pressure, the greater the damage inflicted. This rifle produces minimal noise when firing.
5. New Sellable Items: Top Secret Information, Military Circuit Board, Military Battery, Cobra ID Tag, Steel Front ID Tag, and more.
6. New Backpack Expansion Mechanic: Players can use Metro Cash to obtain a temporary increase in backpack capacity. If a companion is owned, the backpack capacity expansion effect will be sustained. Purchasing the RP will provide a sustained backpack expansion effect for the duration of the season.
7. Talent Tree Updates: Added Stability, Dexterity, Protection, and Machine Gun Mastery talent nodes. Unlocking Tier IV talents no longer requires fully allocating points to prerequisite talents.
8. New Chapter 18 collectibles.

• Key Content 4: New Themed Mode (Available from 12/7)

1. New "Shadow Force" themed mode is here. Try the new melee weapon and tactical items.
2. 1. Shadow Blade: Slashes are imbued with a sword aura which can hit enemies up to about 10 meters away. Additionally, you can use the Assault Blade skill to momentarily block all incoming bullets from the front.
   2. Skytether Hook: A portable grappling hook that allows the user to launch it and propel themselves in a straight line to the target location when equipped. Tap the skill button again to deploy a parachute to briefly glide in the air for enhanced maneuverability.
   3. Shadow Scout (available in beta 2): Throw it to spawn a controllable dummy scout. The scout has enhanced movement to quickly get close to enemies, and can be detonated. Enemies caught in the explosion will be blown away.
2. An exhilarating Respawn Battle debuts in the new version. A new mechanic that gives eliminated players a chance to respawn. The battleground is isolated from the outside by a Seclusion Zone. Participants of Respawn Battle cannot leave the Seclusion Zone. Escape Points will periodically become available in the Seclusion Zone. Interact with an Escape Point to respawn and return to the main battleground.
