Update 7.2 is now available on Test Servers and brings with it weapon balance changes, new ways to play with fire, and the long-awaited Ranked Mode. With Ranked Mode, PUBG players can finally test their skills against the best players in the world, rising (and falling) through the ranks for great rewards and of course bragging rights.

This update also brings Bots to PC servers, which we know has been a controversial topic among the Community the last few weeks. Rest assured, we plan on making improvements to how bots currently work and most importantly, bots will NOT be in Ranked Mode games.

A new video showcasing all of the major changes introduced in the PUBG 7.2 update has also been shared, and you can take a look at it below. Full update notes can be found on the game's official website.

PUBG is now available on PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One worldwide. The game has also been released on Google Stadia last month.
