PUBG INTRODUCING PLAYER SPECIALIZATION WITH TACTICAL GEAR OVERHAUL

With Update 24.1, we're turning Tactical Gear into essential items by enhancing their significance beyond consumable options. From beginners to veterans, the renewed Tactical Gear can foster a sense of achievement among all players by enabling them to contribute to the success of their squad.
 
Following the initial introduction of Tactical Gear, we have observed their considerable utility in gameplay. However, we also understand the magnitude of the decision players were faced with in sacrificing a primary weapon slot for Tactical Gear. The renewed Tactical Gear system solves this problem by introducing a dedicated Tactical Gear slot that is filled at the start of the match.
 
For solo play, we look forward to seeing players utilizing a strategy centered around their chosen Tactical Gear, which you'd select to complement your primary weapon. Players may opt for a slow-burn approach with the EMT Gear, the Drone and Blue Chip Detector can help with a strategy that involves quick penetration of the center area, and the Tactical Pack could suit those favoring weapons with high ammo consumption. As for the Spotter Scope, it may be ideal for players selecting weapons used for long-distance engagements.
 
During team play, we anticipate strategic looting that aligns with squad dynamics while avoiding overlapping roles. Each teammate would have a distinct role, contributing effectively to the team's primary goal.



Update 24.1 also introduces a Universal Repair Kit item and numerous quality-of-life changes and improvements. Competitive players can now claim their Season 23 Ranked Mode rewards and dive straight into Season 24. These and other changes are described in full detail in the latest patch notes.
