After the usual short stint on the test servers, the latest Playerunknown Battlegrounds patch will be going live tonight.
The patch will be deployed at 10 Jan 6PM PST/ 11Jan 3AM CET / 11 Jan 11:00AM KST and maintenance will last four hours. In case you missed the test server action, this patch adds a new way to report pesky cheaters in-game via the replay feature. The other main highlight is improved performance with a reduction in the visible distance while in the air parachuting.
This patch also adds the new crate system which now includes the addition of a crate which can only be opened via a key. The new crates have a high drop rate and PUBG has released the percentage chance to drop for the crates which are as follows:
- DESPERADO (new paid crate box) : 40%
- BIKER (new free crate box) : 40%
- Wanderer : 10%
- Survivor : 10%
The full Playerunknown Battlegrounds patch notes can be found here and they also include the drop rates for specific cosmetic items.
