Summary
As part of the approaching Spring Fest 2025, developer Krafton has releasedPUBG: Battlegroundsupdate 33.2, which includes a new Crafter Pass, a new Gunplay Labs feature, and the return of the Loot Truck to the Sanhok map. Alongside the new content,PUBG: Battlegroundsupdate 33.2 addresses many UX/UI and performance issues while tackling various bugs.
As a pioneer in the battle royale genre,PUBG: Battlegroundswas pretty successful on Steam. However, many similar video games, such asFortnite,Apex Legends, andWarzonecame to the scene, andPUBGstarted to face strong competition. Nevertheless, the game continued to receive developer support to keep the experience fresh for players. Now, the developer is bringing more updates and new content to the game.
PUBGis reintroducing the Loot Truck to the Sanhok mapin update 33.2, with changes to better fit the map’s revamped environment. This feature provides players with four Loot Trucks after the match begins, giving players the opportunity to destroy them to prevent further spawns. The Loot Truck is available only in Normal, Custom, and Arcade matches. The developer noted that Loot Trucks are pretty valuable since they can “fully equip your entire squad.” However, players should be careful when attempting to destroy them, as Loot Trucks are tough and can make them easy targets for enemies.
But that’s not all forPUBG’s Sanhok map changes, as Krafton is also bringing the Recall system to the map in response to players players' requests. Available in custom maps as well, recall fights unlock every 2 minutes and 30 seconds but won’t be accessible after Phase 6. The arrival of the aim punch mechanism from Gunplay Labs to Arcade is another significant addition. Starting January 22 on PC and January 30 on console, the update improves aim punch mechanics based on each weapon’s characteristics, with the developer noting that further changes will be made based on players' future feedback.
As part of the Spring Fest 2025 announcement, a new Crafter Pass with progressive Greek Mythology-themed weapon skins and chromas will be available through Special Crafting until March 17 for PC players and March 25 for console players. The update also features a number of other adjustments, including a new Hot Drop mode, new lobby music, adjustments to the brightness settings, and fixes for hitching and frame drop problems on the Sanhok map.
Much likepreviousPUBG: Battlegroundsupdates, Krafton is tackling plenty of bugs in gameplay, world design, UX/UI, and various items and skins causing issues. As players dive into update 33.2,PUBG’s developer remains committed to providing a fresh gaming experience.
