[previewyoutube="s6UZwyVz-cE;full"] PUBG began with the iconic 8x8 map Erangel; today, with Update 12.2 we're excited to release our newest 8x8 map: Taego.
Taego has diverse terrain and environments, with numerous towns, compounds, and unique points of interest across the Battleground. Be on the lookout for wildlife, with flocks of birds reacting to player movement and gunfire, giving you a potential early sign of danger ahead. Comeback BR and the Self AED are two new gameplay features exclusive to Taego, giving players a chance to get back into the fight.
Read on for full details.
New Map: Taego
Comeback BR
Comeback BR is a Taego exclusive second-chance mechanic allowing players who die during the first Blue Zone phase the chance to drop back into the fight later in the match.
Players who die during the first Blue Zone phase battle it out in the Comeback Arena, a location separate from the main Taego Battleground. Survivors who remain alive long enough in the Comeback Arena are transported by helicopter back to the Taego mainland in phase 3 to resume their fight for the Chicken Dinner.

Update 12.1 - Now Live!
Update 12.1 has arrived on the Battlegrounds!
We’re excited for you to get your hands on our biggest Miramar update to date! Sweeping changes have been made map-wide, including improved textures and an overhaul to lighting. Major points of interest will still feel familiar but fresh, with adjustments to building interiors and reduced object clutter to enhance ease of movement throughout the map.
Put your marksman skills to work with the armor-piercing Lynx AMR sniper rifle and traverse the updated desert landscape of Miramar on the new Quad off-road vehicle.
We appreciate everyone who had time to play the changes on the test server and graciously offer feedback. Based directly on your feedback, we’ve reduced bloom in certain weather settings to improve visibility.
[previewyoutube="4EBxWJqN_ew;full"] Please keep the feedback coming; we’ll continue to monitor your feedback closely.
That’s not all; tomorrow we’re adding a new limited-time mode to PUBG LABS – Racing Mode! Check out the Racing Mode announcement to learn more and view the full patch rundown in the patch notes.
