PUBG is going free-to-play on PC on January 12, publisher Krafton announced during The Game Awards. While mobile players have enjoyed PUBG for free since its launch, the PC version – now called PUBG Battlegrounds – continued to have an upfront cost. But not for much longer.
While making the transition to free-to-play, the game will recognize the dedication – and money spent – of existing players. To that end, all those who have played PUBG before the free-to-play news was announced will receive a Special Commemorative Pack, which includes:
- Costume skin set
- Battle-hardened Legacy Corset
- Battle-hardened Legacy Jacket
- Battle-hardened Legacy Gloves
- Battle-hardened Legacy Pants
- Battle-hardened Legacy Boots
- Shackle and Shanks Legacy – Pan
- Nameplate – Battle-hardened Legacy
- Battlegrounds Plus
The last item in that list is Battlegrounds Plus, which Krafton describes as “a new product that gives PUBG fans a way to supplement their Battlegrounds experience while supporting the game”. Plus comes with a one-time payment of $12.99 for free-to-play players, but existing players get it as a free reward.
Battlegrounds Plus includes the following:
- Survival Mastery XP +100% boost
- Career – Medal tab
- Ranked Mode
- Creating custom matches.
- In-game items:
- Captain’s Camo Hat
- Captain’s Camo Mask
- Captain’s Camo Gloves
- Bonus 1300 G-COIN
