PUBG is getting two big new maps, one with respawns

PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds will get two new maps in the 8×8 format, or 8 by 8 kilometers. The playing fields have the code names Tiger and Kiki and only teasers have been shown for the time being. On the Tiger map, players will respawn when they die.

Tiger is the first new 8×8 map to be released for PUBG and it will be the first time in three years that a new large playing field will appear. According to the developers, Tiger will contain all aspects of PUBG, but players will respawn there after they die. The makers have already experimented with this functionality and now say that this has been done with the new playing field in mind. Tiger is based in Korea, the makers tell IGN. It is not yet known when the new playing field will be released, but it will be sometime this year.

At the end of 2021 or early 2022 there will be a new 8×8 map: Kiki. That playing field will have a ‘diverse set of locations’, from underground labs to enormous skyscrapers, swamps and metro systems. This should be PUBG’s most diverse playing field to date. The plans for Kiki are still in an early phase and the makers will come with more details later this year.

Miramar remaster

A remaster of Miramar will be released before the arrival of the new major maps. That happens with the 12.1 update for PUBG. The playing field gets graphic improvements and an ATV is added, where two players can take place. The map will also get a new heavy-caliber sniper rifle, the Lynx AMR. This new version of Miramar will be live on the PUBG servers ‘soon’.
