PUBG Mobile 0.10.0 update is scheduled to release on December 20, 5:30 am IST. Matchmaking will be available 24 hours later.
We told you at the beginning of the month that PUBG Mobile will be getting the 0.10.0 update and at the time, we had also published Patch Notes for the same. Now, reiterating all that the update brings, PUBG Mobile has officially tweeted out details of the upcoming update which will bring the famous Vikendi Snow map to the mobile game. In a Reddit post, PUBG Mobile has listed all the new additions to the game with the 0.10.0 update, along with improvements to matchmaking, chat and shop. There’s also a new teaser poster with the words ‘PUBG Mobile Xnow’ written on it. We think ‘Xnow’ is PUBG’s take on the word ‘Snow’.
Before we get started with all the new content being added to the game, know that the 0.10.0 update is already available for the game. However, the Vikendi Snow or Xnow map is still not available fand will be released in December 20, 5:30 am IST. Matchmaking will be available 24 hours later. Now that you know the availability of the Vikendi map on PUBG Mobile, here is a list of all the new content and improvements made to the game with the new update.

Problems after updating to PUBG Mobile ver. 0.10.0
Some PUBG Mobile players have been reporting problems with audio and graphics in the game after the update. According to comments made by players on the update Reddit thread, the update makes it difficult to discern the direction from which enemies approach. “I thought I was going crazy when I heard an enemy on my right side but ultimately he popped up on my left,” said one user. Complaining about degraded graphics, another user said, “my resolution is so low after this update , its all a jaggy mess.” Hopefully, the developers will take note of the issues and patch the same with another update.
