PUBG: Battlegrounds is one of the oldest titles in the battle royale genre. For many, it remains among the best battle royale games, despite the abundance of titles released in the genre in the years since its 2017 launch. Thanks to its continued popularity, developer PUBG Studios has been able to keep updating the game with new content to this day. It's great to see a developer not rest on its laurels in the wake of success, instead remaining committed to making PUBG: Battlegrounds the best game it can possibly be.

PUBG Studios is branching out with a brand-new project, and its approach appears to be an interesting mirror to Helldivers 2.
2In an explosive trailer, PUBG Studios revealed that destructible environments and buildings are coming to PUBG: Battlegrounds' Sanhok map on December 4. A bridge is blown up, players destroy a small town in the heat of combat, new ditches are made in the grass for players to use as cover, and there's even a wall being breached with explosives. It's an epic look at what players can expect when they hop back into Sakhok upon the release of this update. PUBG: Battlegrounds already requires tons of tactical nous to succeed, but this is sure to raise the skill ceiling even higher.
PUBG's Destructible Environments Are Coming To Sanhok
The destructible environments feature was previously made available for the Rondo map in PUBG: Battlegrounds' 29.1 update earlier this year, but this is the first time it's coming to Sanhok. It's a map that has been around since 2018, so this should provide a massive shake-up in how it's played going forward. It will always be challenging to make a map feel fresh again when players are so familiar with it, but destructible environments will be a great way to achieve this without fundamentally changing the layout. PC players can try it out from December 4, while console players must wait until December 12.
While Sanhok's destructible environments will provide something new in the game's immediate future, it's not the only thing that fans have to look forward to. Earlier this year, PUBG: Battlegrounds' 2024 roadmap featured a move to Unreal Engine 5. Considering the lack of news about this since, it's unlikely to come this year, but it's good to know that it's still in the works.
