Beginning on January 12th, 2022 PUBG: Battlegrounds will become free-to-play on PlayStation 4 for everyone following the online multiplayer battle royale game's initial release and addition to Sony's PlayStation Now digital video game library alongside a PUBG Special Commemorative Pack featuring cosmetics to thank longterm players. 😀

Below are all the PUBG: Battlegrounds (previously known as PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds) details courtesy of Krafton Product Marketing Manager John Yang, to quote:

PUBG Battlegrounds Free-to-Play on PS4 Starting January 12, 2022 2.jpg Battlegrounds free-to-play now gives us the opportunity to expand our community even more and bring all the thrills of PUBG and battle royale to everyone, while providing new friends, and let’s be honest, more targets for our existing player base. In many ways, going free-to-play was our natural next step.

Since launch, it’s always been our intention to bring the Battlegrounds to as large of an audience as possible. It’s part of the reason we decided to launch in early access, it’s why we grew into consoles and other platforms, and it’s why we’ve expanded the PUBG franchise into other ventures like esports and entertainment. With free-to-play, we can finally fulfill an important and long standing goal of ours.

So, what can new players expect when they drop in next year? Well, they can look forward to 100 survivors parachuting into a winner-takes-all showdown featuring best-in-class gunplay.

PUBG Battlegrounds Free-to-Play on PS4 Starting January 12, 2022 3.jpg Players must land, loot, and survive across not only some of the largest maps in battle royale, but the largest variety of maps, which include forest, jungle, snow, desert, city, and countryside environments. Battlegrounds free-to-play will also include several improvements we’ve been working on, with some of those focused on our new players. We can’t wait to reveal more closer to launch and in the months to follow.

For our existing player base, we’d like to thank our longtime fans with a special PUBG – Special Commemorative Pack for anyone who has purchased the game, which includes seven cosmetic items and access to Battlegrounds Plus, which unlocks all of the game’s features while providing some account boosts.

:idea: As the Special Commemorative Pack will only be available from December 12, 11pm PT / December 13, 8am CET until January 10, 2022 11am PT / 8pm CET at PlayStation Store, make sure to grab it before it goes away.

PUBG: Battlegrounds free-to-play goes live on January 12, 2022, so stay tuned for more information. We truly believe that now is the best time to play, so bolster your squad and get ready to drop in to win that Chicken Dinner with as many friends as you can. We’ll see you on the Battlegrounds.
