PUBG to Get New ‘Conquest’ Mode, Suicide Squad Skins; Could Come to PS4 Soon

PUBG was fairly popular among hardcore PC gamers but its popularity jumped leaps and bounds when Chinese internet giant Tencent decided to bringPUBG Mobileto Android and iOS. Surely one of the most elaborate titles on not only PC but also mobiles, PUBG has alsoexisted on the Xbox One platformand has beenloved by the clique of Xbox-ers.

But now, the exclusivity of PUBG for Xbox One consoles is likely to end soon as the battle royale game isreportedly coming to PlayStation 4. Some users on the online forumResetEracame acrossinstances of PUBG on PlayStation server.

PUBG on PS4

PS4 user namedMyAssStretchedreported that they could see PUBG in the game database and even shared the Content ID of the game in the PS Network Store. They also shared a high-quality image which could be easily associated with it. This gives us confidence that the game is certain to arrive on PlayStation 4 and 4 Pro consoles. But since, we could not find the instances ourselves – even with a VPN – we cannot say with 100% certainly, just yet.Courtesy: PSN Profiles

While there isn’t much information about the launch of PUBG on PS4 yet, players suspect that the Christmas month makes much sense, as it alsomarks the first anniversary of the game’s release on Xbox One.

Another kernel of hope is therating of the gameby the Game Rating and Administration Committee of Korea. Meanwhile, otherreports from last yearalso suggest PUBG’s developer Bluehole initiated talks with other console makers to launch the game on more platforms.

At the same time, we are also interested in the arrival of the game on Nintendo Switch, which supposedly was themost popular gaming gift last Christmas.

New Winter Map Coming With “Conquest” Mode

SinceE3 2018, we have known about PUBG Corp’s intentions to add a snow map to the game but that’s pretty much we’ve known so far. However, Xbox recently tweeted that there’s some “big” news coming in the next five days, which is the date for Microsoft’s X018 fan event.

While this has gotten us excited about theupcoming snow map, a more conservative view suggests that basic vehicle and weapon upgrades, as well as the night mode, should definitely be coming to PUBG on Xbox One. As far as the snow map is concerned,we now knowthat it will be called “Dihor Otok”. The map should also come with a new “Conquest” mode in which players need to secure a certain area of the map.

DC Villains’ Costumes Coming to PUBG

Using a tweet, PUBG Corp announced that players will soon be able to embrace skins of two of the most popular villains in the DC Comics franchise. These include the iconic outlaw duo from Suicide Squad – the Joker and Harley Quinn who will be coming to PC and Xbox One platforms, but not on the mobile version yet.

“Ok, honey. It’s me and you.”

We don’t have much clarity if these are mere costumes or if there would be additional campaigns associated the skins and we expect to learn more soon.
