PUBG 2 Confirmed? - 6th January
@PlayerIGN has tweeted that PUBG has confirmed they are developing PUBG Mobile 2.
Release Date
Currently, there is no release date scheduled for this game.
It would be too early to assume it is arriving this year, so we are anticipating for it to release in 2022.
An announcement could come in as early as 24th January according to @subzidite2 - if the game is heavily mobile-focused.
A possible announcement could be the final week of PGI.s (28th March).
Platforms
According to @PlayerIGN, it is a PC and Console Cross-Platform title.
Meaning it will land on Xbox Series X, PlayStation and PC. We also assume it will be placed onto last-gen consoles including the Xbox One and PS4.
There are no details on whether it is coming to Nintendo Switch.
The Mobile version will be exclusive to mobile users and platforms, meaning iOS and Android users will play a separate version of the game together.
Price
There's no pricing for the title yet.
The original game is listed for £26.99 on Steam.
It costs roughly £15-25 on the Xbox and PlayStation store.
The game is free on mobile devices.
Engine
It's believed the game will run on Unreal Engine 4 - this is due to a XTRM job listing asking for people with UE4 experience (according to @subzidite2).
Cross-Play
@PlayerIGN has confirmed that the title will support cross-platform play.
