PUBG Update 33.1 introduces destructible environments in Sanhok, SMG rebalances, solo mode for Win Streak Showdown and More

PUBG’s latest Update 33.1 shakes up the battlegrounds with game-changing features, including destructible environments on Sanhok, significant SMG rebalances, and the introduction of solo play in the Win Streak Showdown mode. Packed with fresh updates and improvements, this patch promises to keep players on their toes and enhance the gameplay experience across the board.

Sanhok Gets a Makeover

PUBG's tropical battleground, Sanhok, is expanding its destruction levels as Update 33.1 brought in destructible environments where buildings and other props were keystones to allow obliteration sometimes with namesakes like explosives or from the Red Zone. Added to the chaos is the map's own destructible terrain like Rondo, which makes tactical planning even more alive. To complement the destruction mechanics, the newly re-textured and terrain Sanhok promises to offer players in a much more visually immersive experience before-and even after-the things blow up.

SMG Rebalance for a Sharper Edge

Major changes for every SMG in PUBG are part of Update 33.1 with better emphasis on weapon diversity, complexity improvements, and usability. For example, most SMGs now allow better rejecting of hip-fire accuracy, movement accuracy, and over-the-shoulder (OTS) aiming. Moreover, they, through a weight reduction on 9mm ammo, now allow players to carry more rounds to stockpile in the final-action moments of a match. With these, SMGs should become better recognized and more viable individually in the weapon line-up.
