KRAFTON

AMSTERDAM, NETHERLANDS – November 15, 2023 – KRAFTON is excited to introduce RONDO, PUBG: BATTLEGROUNDS’ 10th map set to release next month. RONDO was revealed through the World Art Trailer.

The World Art Trailer vividly captures the essence of RONDO, featuring a captivating fusion of traditional aesthetics and modern visuals. RONDO, known as the Ground of Honor, is an expansive 8×8 map, making it the map with the largest playable area ever introduced in PUBG: BATTLEGROUNDS. Players can jump into RONDO when Update 27.1 arrives on December 6 for PC and December 14 for consoles.

RONDO offers a seamless blend of traditional charm and contemporary visuals across its diverse regions. In the southwest, players will encounter new environments such as lakes and bamboo groves, while the northeast presents a different ambiance with various ridges. Yu Lin, surrounded by lakes and forests, exudes traditional beauty. Tin Long Garden, located in a traditional residential area, boasts waterfalls and rocky mountains, harmonizing grandeur with nature. In Mey Ran, where buildings and rivers coexist, aquatic battles await.

The map also features a modern cityscape. Jadena City, with its towering skyscrapers and vibrant neon signs, serves as the backdrop for intense urban warfare. NEOX Factory introduces unique combat scenarios, including a vehicle test track and factory zone featuring the NEOX vehicle Blanc. Players can explore a range of visually diverse areas, such as Rin Jiang, Jao Tin, and the Stadium.

RONDO introduces new elements unique to the map. Destructible bamboo is strategically placed throughout, adding a tactical layer to gameplay as players can destroy them using throwables or vehicles. City-specific transportation options are also available. In Jadena City, the Mid-Level Escalator allows players to move swiftly between buildings. Additionally, RONDO introduces a new weapon designed exclusively for the map – the JS9, a 9mm submachine gun (SMG) with relatively low recoil and the option to switch to automatic firing mode, making it a preferred choice within the map.

We’ll have more information about RONDO to share soon. Until then, please visit https://pubg.com/en-eu or follow us on our social media channels: YouTube, Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, Twitch and TikTok for the latest on PUBG: BATTLEGROUNDS.
