PUBG Mobile 0.13.0 Update: Release Date, What's New, and More

PUBG Mobile is receiving its 0.13.0 update tomorrow, and ahead of that, the developers have posted the changelog on Twitter. PUBG Mobile is the mobile version of the PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds that was developed by Tencent Games studios. It was released globally for Android and iOS in early 2018. Since then, the game has garnered much attention thanks to its swiftly growing player base and the massive revenue it was generating. The original for PC, PS4, and Xbox One also helped popularise the 'battle royale' genre, and soon Epic Games' Fortnite got its own battle royale version, while EA launched Apex Legends earlier this year to capitalise on the craze.
