- The map service for Ranked is updated on a season-by-season basis.
Dev's comment: Previously, we shared our goal of strengthening the connection between the matches you enjoy watching and those you love playing. As part of this effort, the maps featured in Esports are included as fixed rotations in Ranked. During Season 31, the PUBG Nations Cup 2024 will feature Rondo as the official map following the Esports World Cup 2024. To accommodate this, Rondo will replace Vikendi with a 20% probability in Season 31. We had initially announced that Deston and Rondo would rotate on a seasonal basis for a diverse gameplay experience. However, Deston was not available in Season 30 because both Vikendi and Rondo were included in Esports. As a result, Deston will return to Ranked with a 10% probability in Season 31.
※ Please note that the features and updates described below are subject to change or removal due to issues such as bugs, in-game problems, and community feedback. The images are intended as visual references only; the actual game may look different as the builds are continually developed and refined before release.
Clan System
We're adding a bunch of new features to the Clan system that will double both the rewards and the fun!
New Features
Weekly Mission System
- Your Clan will now have weekly Clan Challenges to work towards and individual Clan Member Missions to complete for various rewards.
- As your Clan finishes Clan Challenges together, you’ll start to rank up your new Clan Supply Airplane’s Class.
- As your Supply Airplane upgrades, you’ll get better rewards from the new Clan Loot Caches you receive for completing Clan Member Missions!
![](https://wstatic-prod-boc.krafton.com/common/news/20240805/OFQafcmj.jpg)
- Clan Challenges are weekly co-op missions.
- Completing Clan Challenges awards Gauge Points for your Clan's Supply Airplane.
- Five challenges are given every week, and completing the current challenge unlocks the next one.
- The goals of the Clan Challenges are based on the number of Clan members when the challenges are unlocked.
- Clans with fewer than 20 members will be given the same goals as Clans with 20 members.
- Supply Airplane
- Supply Airplane's Class (S/A/B/C/D) is assigned based on the number of Gauge Points earned through Clan Challenges.
- Each week, a certain number of Gauge Points are deducted, with the amount depending on the Supply Airplane's Class.
- Gauge Points and Class are finalized every Wednesday at 02:00 UTC, upon a Clan member's entry into the lobby.
- Activity that takes place after 02:00 UTC but before Gauge Points and Class are finalized will not be counted.
- If you start a match before Gauge Points and Class are finalized and return to the lobby after another Clan member, the Clan Member Missions you completed in that match will not be counted.
- Clan Member Missions are weekly individual missions.
- Upon completion, you will instantly receive a new Clan-exclusive reward: the Clan Loot Cache.
- The Class of the Clan Loot Cache you receive corresponds to your Clan Supply Airplane's Class.
- There are five missions available each week, which unlock simultaneously with the respective Clan Challenge.

- Clan Loot Caches of all Classes provide a chance to obtain BP, Credits, Imprints, and Polymers.

Dev's comment: We've talked about bringing more variety to the gunplay experience in 2024. In addition to the mainstream firearm balancing and SMG Rebalance, we're now adjusting the attachments that play a crucial role in gunplay. So far, attachment use has been limited to one or two choices, often driven by performance advantages rather than personal preference. With Update 31.1, we're introducing the new Muzzle Brake and adjusting the less-used attachments. This will provide more options that can be based on personal preference, situation, and skill level. Although these changes don't directly alter the weapons themselves, we aim to increase variety and enjoyment in your gunplay experience by enhancing the attachments that are essential to it.
World: Rondo
