If you’ve been waiting patiently for PUBG‘s new update, then we may have some good news for you. Yes, the popular battle royale has just received its 13.1 update and it’s available to download right now for PS4 and Xbox One. It’s worth noting, however, that the 13.1 update has been available to PC players since last week.
Specifically, the new update brings a lot of new features to the table including Emergency Landings at the start of some matches, a few small tweaks to the Taego map, a new ranked season, adjustments to the Sanhok map, and much more.
Of course, the biggest addition are those aforementioned Emergency Landings that can occasionally occur while players are waiting to drop into the map at the beginning of a match. That’s right, when players are in the plane, there’ll be times when the engine will explode, which will force the pilot to to make an emergency landing. If players decide to not jump before the plane lands, they’ll start the match with only 50 per cent HP. Sounds pretty risky, right?
