It's time to explore the next chapter of PUBG: Battlegrounds: update 19.1 is officially available for PC and console players worldwide. The cooperation with the Assassin's Creed brand from Ubisoft is particularly important.
There are some new features for fans: take out enemies with the new MP9, speed through the streets with sirens wailing in the Pillar Security Car, search for enemies with the Blue Chip Detector and dare an Assassin's Creed-style "Leap of Faith" while you explored Abstergo's shadowy influence in Haven.
Assassin's Creed collaboration
The highlight is the Assassin's Creed cooperation. Abstergo Industries has invaded Haven and taken control of one of the map's main buildings, complete with a hidden Animus machine and strategically placed Leap of Faith jumps on the building's roof. The cooperation also comes with a chance to earn cosmetic rewards through gameplay, including new costumes, bag skins, a parachute skin, an emote, and more. And it's all on a map that's returning for the first time since Season 16.
Available on the Deston map, the MP9 is the first fully automatic SMG to use the widely available and practical 9mm ammunition. It suits players who like guns like the P90 but prefer something more portable with lots of ammo - albeit with a slightly lower effective range, rate of fire and damage than the above.
A new item is the folded shield. Found on every map, the folded shield allows players mobile cover that can be easily carried, deployed, and hidden at will. The shield has a strength of 1500 hp and must be destroyed by enemies before the player behind it can be hit.
There is also new tactical equipment: the blue chip detector. This handy device utilizes the player's primary weapon slot, allowing them to spot enemies within 100 meters of their character. The closest 12 enemies are shown as dots on the map. Their position is adjusted every time the screen refreshes, and the detector only plays sounds audible to the user when it detects enemy movement. The blue chip detector even recognizes differences in height.
