PUBG newest update is here and many new things have arrived. The long-awaited Erangel Ferries have been added to the game which was somewhat was obvious with the new docks been added to Erangle. There are two Ferry lines that will now carry passengers from Southern Erangel to Sosnovka Island and back. There’s a total of 4 ferries that make round trips throughout the game. These ferries will depart from the docks with the first phase of the Blue Zone. Upon its arrival at the dock, they will stay there for 20 seconds and after that, it will be sailing to sea once again. But before it’s departure the ferries will sound a horn 7 secs which will give you the idea when to get on board. These ferries won’t be available in Ranked Mode or Esports Mode in Custom Matches
There is also a new item added which is called Jammer Pack. It will allow players to prevent them from taking any damage from the Blue Zone damage for a short time at the expense of level 3 bag space. This item will only spawn on Sanhok and Karakin in Normal and Custom Matches. The way it works is that it uses its energy to temporarily prevent players from taking damage from the Blue Zone. When equipped, an energy bar for it will be shown on screen and when this energy depletes, the Jammer Pack will function only a regular backpack and it won’t protect the player after that from the Blue Zone. Also, this can be obtainable from the Sanhok Loot Truck.
