The wait is over. PUBG: Battlegrounds 9th new map is finally here in this update. Welcome to the 8×8 near-future and ravaged world: Deston!

Deston presents you with diverse biomes – a flooded downtown embracing one of the tallest skyscrapers you’ve ever seen in PUBG: Battlegrounds, a murky swamp, clear coasts, beautiful mountains, and unexplored islands.

Dive down and experience new elements you’ve never seen before.

ASCENDER

Rapidly mount skyscrapers via the Ascender Ropes attached to buildings. Ascenders may be your only solution to reaching higher floors in higher buildings!

O12

Introducing the world’s fastest shotgun – the O12 is PUBG: Battlegrounds‘ very first high-capacity weapon noted for its extremely high rate of fire… with slugs! With its combination of heavy damage and high rate of fire, the O12 will be your worst nightmare in both mid- and close-range combat.
