PUBG celebrates its 9th anniversary with Update 40.2 and special events in Rondo

The battlegrounds are filling with surprises in PUBG: BATTLEGROUNDS with the release of Patch Report #40.2. This update commemorates the game’s 9th anniversary with themed activities and new rewards scattered across the map.

One of the patch's main attractions is the arrival of a special 9th Anniversary Pop-Up Store on the Rondo map. This limited-time space allows players to explore a festive zone dedicated to the celebration, where they can take part in exclusive activities and earn event-related rewards.

Featured mechanics include the Lucky Roulette, a wheel offering special prizes for those feeling lucky during the event. Additionally, players can hunt for the quirky Chicken Man, a special anniversary character who drops Lucky Eggs—unique items that are part of the celebration's themed loot.

The update also brings changes beyond the anniversary festivities. On the Vikendi map, Secret Rooms have been refreshed with new items, expanding the looting possibilities for those skilled enough to find these hidden chambers during a match.

With Update 40.2, PUBG celebrates nearly a decade of history with festive in-game content while continuing to fine-tune its world and mechanics. Nine years after its launch, the message is clear: the battle continues, and the party is just getting started. More information here.
