PlayerUnknown’s Battleground aka PUBG is all set to receive major updates in the coming days not to mention that the game will be free to play on PS4 very soon.
Just a few days ago, Microsoft had announced that PUBG is free to download for the Xbox for a limited period of time and now Sony is set to follow suit with the game set to become available for PS4 in December.
Since there is more in store for PUBG fanatics, here’s a look at all the upcoming updates for PUBG on mobile.
PUBG on PS4
There have been multiple rumours floating on the internet that PUBG will become a free-to-play game on PS4 very soon. Although, there is no information whether it will support cross sharing.
This comes after a user claimed to have seen PUBG on Sony's server and many analyst claimed to has seen the game on the PS4 servers in October. Only recently, Microsoft has announced that PUBG will be free to download and play but only for a limited period of time.
The game has spent majority of its time on Steam for the PC platform when it was released for Windows last December. Soon after, PUBG for mobile was released.
DC Comics Characters to be Introduced
The game’s developer Bluehole has announced that it is joining hands with DC Comics to introduce skins that make the characters in the game look like Joker and Harley Quinn!
There not much about this on the internet, but a YouTube teaser of the same seems to suggest the same. The teaser shows Harley Quinn being broken out of a prison which seems to be in Miramar.
These avatars in all probability will be available for purchase and won’t come with the free version of the game.
The update is set to hit the game post December.
