What to expect from PUBG Patch 33.2?
Players can look forward to the Crafter Pass, which offers progressive weapon skins, Chromas, and unique crafting items inspired by legendary mythical creatures. In addition, a new custom lobby skin will be available, alongside various festive surprises throughout the event. The update also brings several changes to the Sanhok map, including the return of the Loot Truck and adjustments to the Recall System.
Four Loot Trucks will now spawn at designated locations soon after a match begins, giving players the chance to gather valuable supplies. The Recall System has been refined to suit Sanhok’s smaller size, resulting in less frequent recall fights while preserving the intensity of combat. Another major feature introduced in Patch 33.2 is the Aim Punch Testing in Gunplay Labs. This feature allows players to test out changes to aim punch levels across different weapon types in a fast-paced combat environment.
