PUBG Mobile’s Vikendi winter map is coming this month (Update: Available today!)

Update, December 21, 2018 (11:54AM EST): PUBG Mobile's Vikendi winter map is available today as part of the game's 0.10.0 update.

Vikendi is a 6km x 6km snow map that features heavy snow and a snowmobile as the exclusive weather and vehicle, respectively. Based on the trailer above, it looks like other vehicles feature Christmas-themed paint jobs. Even the supply drop plane and the supply drop itself are Christmas-themed.

Along with Vikendi, version 0.10.0 also includes the following:

  • Cross-serving matchmaking: Players can now match with other players of the same rank across other servers for balanced gameplay.
  • Anti-cheating measures: Improved recognition for cheating with new report options for spectating players and additional penalties for quitting matches.
  • Firearm Upgrade System: New materials at the Lab are available for players to upgrade certain weapon finishes to unlock exclusive kill effects, broadcasts, and death crate appearances.
  • Layout improvements: Players' best results in the Crew Challenge will now be displayed and players can now collect all daily missions all at once.

Patch notes have not yet been published at the time of this writing. That said, you can read the original article below to read supposedly leaked patch notes for version 0.10.0.


Original article, December 17, 2018 (12:43PM EST): PUBG Mobile will receive its fourth map very soon in the form of Vikendi. The game teased the new winter map on its Twitter page and in the YouTube video above.

There's not much to glean from the teaser trailer apart from the possible inclusion of snowmobiles. Given that Vikendi is a winter map, you can also expect snow as a new weather condition.

Lastly, the title of the YouTube video tells us that Vikendi will be available in version 0.10.0 of PUBG Mobile.

Editor's Pick

Interestingly, XDA Developers reportedly acquired the patch notes for 0.10.0 from a "reliable source" almost two weeks ago. According to the purported patch notes, Vikendi also features Night Mode, the G36C assault rifle, and a slower blue zone.

Elsewhere, version 0.10.0 reportedly includes a snow theme for the main menu, snowball fights in Vikendi's Spawn Island, and a new layout for players with larger hands.

You can read the rest of the leaked patch notes down below. If the patch notes are accurate, Vikendi will be available later this week.
