PUBG PC, PS4, and Xbox One Update Borrows Weapon Progression From Rainbow Six Siege

Share This

PUBG for PC, PS4, and Xbox One will get a new update that borrows from Rainbow Six Siege. According to a post from the game's developers, PUBG guns will get cosmetic items that can be seen in first-person view. This is not too dissimilar to Rainbow Six Siege's charms. These items are free rewards earned by players who increase their Weapon Mastery, another new addition to the game. The update, referred to as PUBG Update 28 for PC, is already up on that version's test servers.
If you want to check it out, the PUBG Update 28 PC download size is 5.6GB. It will be available on PS4 and Xbox One on a yet to be announced date.
"Weapon Mastery is a progression system that allows players to earn free rewards as they level up their gunplay skills," a post from PUBG's developers reads. "As part of Weapon Mastery we are also debuting Medals for players who perform awesome feats during their matches."
"In addition to our latest feature, we've taken your feedback from our first round of Erangel loot rebalances and made adjustments. Speaking of adjustments, based on player feedback we have reduced the difficulty on a number of missions for Survivor Pass 3: Wild Card, including the elimination of a few missions deemed too difficult to complete."
