PUBG Mobile has been the most influential mobile game in the
battle royale genre, and Tencent seems keen to keep it up. Only
within a year of its release, PUBG has become such a
phenomenon which was never expected. Google awarded the
game the title of Best Game of the Year 2018. The game is a
mobile version of the original Player Unknown’s Battlegrounds
which is for the PC platform. The PC version of the game does
not stop with minor updates but also enhances the already
existing features.
New Look for Erangel
The game developers discussed several changes that are going to take place in the
original map Erangel. The updates to Erangel has already taken place in the PC
platform, and now the changes are coming to its mobile version.
Erangel is the oldest map in the game, as this was the map PUBG originally started
with. It was only a year later that PUBG got its another map. Since then there have
been a couple more addition like Vikendi and Sanhok to the game, but Erangel
remains the one closest to fans’ hearts. Erangel is going to be reworked soon on the
mobile platform just like it did on its parent platform.
Erangel 2.0 will come with enhanced visuals, terrain changes, and texture updates.
The executive producer of PUBG Corporation, TS Jang, announced the updates for
the mobile platform. These updates were added as an attempt to keep Erangel still
as beloved as it is and to also build a bit of interest.
A tweet was released on official PUBG Twitter handle and also a video was posted
on PUBG’s official YouTube channel, showcasing the latest changes to the map.
Erangel 2.0: The Changes
The areas that are shown in the video with significant changes are:
1. Yasnaya Polyana
2. Mylta Power
3. Prison
4. Lumberyard above Shelter area
5. The ground between Mylta and Mylta Power
The video showed a before and after look of the terrain. The texture is
the most easily noticeable change in the map. Grass around the ground is
now greener and heavier. Buildings look less bulky as their surface looks
smooth too. Also, a lot of hoardings are added to the premises along with
several billboard stands for Tencent to use. This will provide Tencent
more space to put ads on. The update will name the map Erangel 2.0. The
video said coming soon at the end of it, but there is still no fixed date
from Tencent as to when the update will be released.
