Each Pass is time-limited, requiring players to complete assorted in-game challenges to level up their Pass and unlock new content.

He then said that the Miramar desert map was also built with a combination of in-house content and store-bought assets, though it used less pre-made assets than Erangel. "As our in-house art teams built Miramar, they began to rely less on store-bought assets, although they continued to use them strategically, because it just doesn’t make sense to build everything in the game world yourse PUBG Strategy was released on December 20, 2017 for PC and Xbox One, and then released on mobile earlier this year.
