PUBG Mobile update adds snow map Vikendi

After its roll-out on the PC version of the popular battle royale game, PUBG Corp is bringing the Vikendi map to its mobile version.

In the 0.10.0 update that was rolled out earlier today, the Vikendi map was made available to players of PUBG Mobile.

Vikendi is a 6 km x 6km snow map that can be downloaded from the maps section of the game and joins the existing Erangel, Miramar and Sanhok maps. Vikendi also features an exclusive vehicle in the snowmobile and features a snowball fight mode.

In addition, the update to the game adds support for the Arabic language, cross-server matchmaking - where people of the same rank can play with people from different servers. In addition, the update adds a timed ban for players who repeatedly exit maps right after joining and allows spectators to report suspicious activity.

The update also adds a new layout for people with large hands, new commands for the quick chat, a firearms finish upgrade - which allows players to upgrade their weapon finishes to get additional kill effects, kill broadcasts and death crates.

PUBG Mobile follows the smash hit PC battle royale game, which has consistently ranked #1 on SteamDB's most played games, beating out popular MOBA game Dota 2 and multiplayer first-person shooter Counter-Strike: Global Offensive with incredibly high margins.
