PUBG Lite for PC officially launched in India about a month ago, giving users a chance to hop onto the battle royale hype train – even using a low-end Windows PC. Well, the game entered Open Beta stage and bagged a major update in the process. This update brings a slew of new features, including a new game mode, new map, and a season pass that gets you skins and rewards as you level up.
4vs4 Mode
The biggest addition to PUBG Lite is the 4 vs 4 team deathmatch mode, which should certainly give you a sense of deja vu if you’ve ever played the same on PUBG Mobile. It’s already clear that a four-member squad will land on a new map (on either side) but their objective will now be to secure 30 kills before the enemy squad. You have unlimited respawns, a 10-minute time limit, and access to the complete weapon inventory.
- New Map – BODIE
The 4v4 mode brings in tow a new map. Yeah, PUBG Lite already offers you a chance to play on Erangel, Miramar, and Sanhok. We expected to see Vikendi debut with the Open Beta but instead, we are getting a new smaller map for the Team Deathmatch mode. It’s called BODIE (150×60 meters) and it looks like this:

Lite Pass
PUBG Lite is free to download and allows you to grab that satisfying Chicken Dinner even on low-end PCs. There’s no up-front revenue stream available from PUBG Lite, thus, the developer is introducing a Lite Pass in the mix with Season 1. The developer had been testing this feature for quite some time (remember the Survivor Pass in the closed beta?) and it has now taken final shape.
- L-COIN
Apart from the new features, PUBG Lite is now complementing the in-game currency BP with a new currency called Lite Coin (LC), which requires you to shell out money to gain access to more rewards. You will be able to buy in-game items, which include exclusive costumes, skins, LITE PASS Premium, Rename Card, and more.
