Plus a new anti-cheat measure as well.

PUBG Desert

PUBG Corp is apparently testing some new improvements for Miramar, the new desert map for PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds, on the test servers for the PC version of the game. The improvements include new buildings and cover across the map, which should add more possibilities for players to be able to escape fire, or to get to a vantage point.

Simultaneously, a new anti-cheat system for the game is also implemented into this patch- though, again, for now, this is only available on test servers for the game. Cheating is actually one of the issues that severely plague the PC version of the game, and PUBG Corp has stated its intention to take more stringent measures against it recently- so it’s good to see them already acting on their word.

You can check out the full patch notes for this update for yourself below. PUBG is available on PC, and on Xbox One in early access via Game Preview.

World

Miramar improvements

  • Added more buildings and cover across the map to improve the engagement experience
  • Added more off-road routes for easier vehicle navigation
  • Upgraded the item spawn level of certain areas for loot balancing (some areas will spawn better loot)

Replay

The replay system has now been updated to a newer version and past replay files cannot be played anymore

Bug fixes

  • Fixed the issue where heal and boost items could be used underwater
  • Fixed the issue where characters would get stuck in certain areas on Miramar
  • Fixed the issue where wall textures on some Miramar buildings were not displaying correctly
  • Fixed the issue where certain buildings near by Hacienda del Patron were not displaying correctly
