PUBG Battlegrounds’ Deston map is now on PC, along with new updates

PUBG Battlegrounds’ newest map, Deston, is here. This is the most recent battlefield to appear since Deston was made free-to play earlier this year. A new trailer was also released by PUBG Studios on Wednesday. Deston is available now for PC gamers, while console users will have until July 21st.

Deston takes place in the city after it was submerged by water from a major hurricane. It has rich vegetation and large cities. Among the urban centers of the map is Ripton, a downtown area that presents one of the game’s largest sprawls, while also being partially submerged in water. This city is home to the highest skyscraper. PUBG history.

To help players deal with the new heights of the map, PUBG Studios has also introduced new devices called Ascenders — essentially vertical, mechanized ziplines that can automatically take players to the top or bottom of buildings and skyscrapers. They’re basically elevators, except without any walls, ceiling, or floor. New vehicles like the Pillar Car and weapons like the MP9 SMG or 012 shotgun are also featured on the map.

Deston will be a completely free update that goes along with the game’s latest patch. There’s also a new Survivor Pass players can buy, allowing them to unlock new cosmetic items. PUBG Studios details further changes from the update in the game’s latest patch notes.
