PUBG 4.3 update PATCH NOTES

Multiplatform Game

Players can now pair with players from the other console platform with Cross-Platform Play.

The Cross Party feature that allows players to join with players from different platforms is currently not supported.

The function between parties is scheduled to be developed and the details will be shared at a later date.

The Multiplatform Game option can be activated/deactivated in “Settings – Game – General Settings”.

If a game cannot be found after a certain time with the Cross Platform Play option “off”, players will be asked if they wish to activate the Cross Platform Play option.
Platform Identification Icon

Players who play on the same platform will display the logo of the platform in front of their ID when they play in the Cross Platform Play “on” option.
Players will be able to identify the platform of other users in the loot box, when viewing, in the user’s status message, etc.

Leaderboard

The leaderboard will be displayed differently depending on the status of the Cross-Platform Play option.

Multiplatform game option in the leaderboard will show the two players of the platform
Multiplatform game option disabled: the leaderboard will show only players from the same platform

Survivor Title System Season 4

Survival Title System Season 4 has arrived with new seasonal rewards!

Survival Title System Season 4 begins once Console Update 4.3 reaches live servers.

Survival points (SP) obtained from the preseason are transferred.

UPDATE: players will receive a bonus of 1000 SP in each mode in which they participated during the preseason.

The bonus no longer applies exclusively to those who have reached 1970 SP due to an unexpected technical difficulty.

SP earnings have increased significantly in Erangel, Miramar and Vikendi to make the SP won more fair on all maps with a similar time played

New Feature: Survival Mastery

“Develop your not-so-murderous instincts.”

We are pleased to introduce the Survival Mastery system, where players can develop their less-lethal aspects of the PUBG game. This complementary Weapon Mastery system, which allows players to progress in their firearms skills, will also present new ways for players to express their personalities on the battlefields with new rewards and PUBG identification.

Survival Mastery is a new progression system in which players increase levels by earning XP based on player survival patterns.

The system works all the time without being affected by the seasons. The level limit for the survival domain is 500.

Players can earn XP in the following situations:
Pillage
Using objects during combat
Combat
Revive a teammate

Timeline system that shows a summary of all survival actions performed in a match

Players can verify the survival actions they have performed in their previous game in a timeline sequence from Master> Last Game Tab.

The activities below will be displayed on the timeline, along with other activities to earn XP.

Place where players perform certain actions.
Damage inflicted and received
Distance a player travels using vehicles

New Weapon: DBS

“The DPS in the DBS is OMG!”

DBS is a double-barrel bullpup shotgun that can only be obtained initially from Care Packages.

It has two internal load tubes that allow the user to load up to fourteen rounds of 12 gauge.

Thanks to these combined firing mechanics, DBS can produce massive explosions of damage in a short period of time.

The upper rail of the weapon allows a holographic view, red dot and 2x to 6x range.

The maximum effective range to do damage with DBS is 100 m
