Krafton (CEO Kim Chang-han)’s PubG Studio announced on the 7th that the Player Unknows Battleground (hereinafter referred to as Battleground) mobile update has been carried out and a Karakin map has been added.
Karakin, a new addition to Battleground Mobile, is a 2x2km island that can play up to 64 players per match, and is the smallest map along with Libig. While there are many hills and rocks, there are few covers, and there are many elements of play, such as black zones that destroy buildings and penetrating walls.
In Karakin, some walls can be destroyed, so it can attack enemies on the other side of the wall, the company explained.
In addition, a new throwing weapon’sticky bomb’ has been added that can detonate walls. The sticky bomb explodes after 5 seconds of sticking, inflicting damage up to a radius of 25m, and using this, it can enter a hidden space such as an underground bunker.
A new weapon’Panzerfaust’ was also introduced. Panzerfaust is a range-attack-type firing weapon that can inflict wide-area damage up to 6m and can destroy or penetrate specific walls. It spawns in the supply box of the Karakin map, but can rarely be farmed in the map world.
