Notice on expected Inventory System change for Steam platform

ANNOUNCEMENT 2024.09.05

Hello players,


First, we apologize for the inconvenience caused by the recent frequent delays and occasional failures in receiving inventory items.
We have been working diligently to address these issues and, after much discussion, have decided to transition the current Inventory Database(DB) to PUBG's proprietary DB.


Currently, we are using the Steam DB, which poses significant challenges for us to perform immediate responses when Steam related issues, such as Steam server delays, occur.
To provide a more stable inventory system, we will be transitioning from Steam DB to PUBG DB.
Please see the details and schedule below for more information.



Inventory Database(DB) Change

Changes

  • Current: Steam Inventory DB
  • New: PUBG Inventory DB

Implementation Schedule

  • October 10, 2024 (with Update #32.1)

Important Notes and Effects of the DB Transition

  • The issue of delayed or occasional failures in receiving inventory items is expected to be improved.
  • There will be no changes to the currently possessed items in-game.
  • PUBG in-game items will no longer be visible in the Steam Inventory section.
    • However, items that can be traded on the Steam Market will remain visible in the Steam inventory.

* This inventory DB transition is limited to the Steam platform and will not have any affects on other platforms (Epic, Kakao).




After the inventory DB change, you may experience the inconvenience of being unable to view items in the Steam inventory, except for those that can be traded on the market.
However, from a long-term perspective, we have made this decision to provide better service through quicker responses to our players.
We appreciate your understanding and patience.


Thank you.

PUBG:BATTLEGROUNDS Team
