1. New Themed Area: Aerolith Lab

An impromptu lab was created around the Aerolith to conduct research on it. However, the Aerolith infected the place, making it uninhabitable. Only supplies and mutants remain. Enter the lab to automatically obtain a Respawn Card. A large, dangerous creature is hidden within the confines of the lab.

The Aerolith is ready to spawn a Rage Berserker. When the countdown in the lab begins, it will begin to attract and absorb mutants in the lab to power up the Rage Berserker.
The Rage Berserker will spawn at the end of the countdown. The more mutants that are absorbed during the countdown, the higher its Health, destructive power, size, and danger!
Stop the Aerolith from absorbing mutants to weaken the Rage Berserker. Defeat it to get lots of great supplies!

2. Dangerous Creatures

Groups of mutants wander around the infection zone, but they exhibit simple behavior and are relatively weak. They won’t pose a significant threat to players. Additionally, their overly shriveled bodies make it easy for players to knock them off balance or even send them flying with attacks or vehicle collisions. When defeated, they will also drop some supplies.

Within the infection zone, tall and strong Berserkers can be seen wandering alone. Their muscular right arm can switch between a sharp blade and durable armor. When in their blade form, they will perform wide-range slashing attacks, while in their armored form, they will perform charging attacks. Carefully identify and attack the weak point on their armor to cause a prolonged stun.

Regardless of which attack, both are dangerous and lethal to players. When dealing with them, players must be careful and make good use of various weapons. Berserkers drop lots of supplies when defeated.

Within the infection zone, there are also cunning and nimble Rippers lurking around. Despite their slender form, they are agile enemies with sharp claws that will continually attack players, much like an assassin. Patiently observe their behavior and attack methods before seizing the moment to counterattack. Go for the weak point on their head for greater results. Rippers also drop lots of supplies when defeated.

3. Themed Items

Mutation Blade
- Defeat zombies for a chance to get mutated weaponry. These items will also spawn in the Aerolith Lab.

Maglev Hoverboard
- Maglev Hoverboards will spawn in the Aerolith Lab as an item. After picking it up, it can be used via the quick item menu or from inside your Backpack. Use it to move around on a Maglev Hoverboard.
- It has undergone significant enhancements in its power and structure, so it can travel on both land and water to quickly traverse the map. Additionally, it can perform impressive maneuvers while in the air.

There is a chance to get an Exclusive Emote Card in the Aerolith Lab. Pick it up to get a new exclusive Emote only usable during the match.

PUBG Mobile Game

PUBG Mobile is a free game that many people can play at once. It was made by a company called LightSpeed & Quantum Studio, which is part of Tencent Games. This game is based on another game called PUBG: Battlegrounds. It first came out on March 19, 2018, for Android and iOS phones.

Different companies published the game in different parts of the world, like Krafton, Tencent, and VNG Games. By December 2022, PUBG Mobile was downloaded over 1.3 billion times, and it made more than $9 billion in money. It’s also the second most popular mobile game ever. In 2021, they made an Indian version called Battlegrounds Mobile India, and another game in the PUBG world called New State Mobile.

PUBG Mobile Gameplay

In PUBG Mobile, the game is a lot like the original PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds. You start by jumping out of a plane onto an island, and your goal is to be the last person or team standing. You can play by yourself, with a friend, or in a group of four, depending on the mode you pick before the game starts. Each game usually lasts about 30 minutes, but if you’re really good at staying alive, it might go up to about 33 minutes.

In the beginning, you’re on a plane flying over a map, and you get to decide where to land. Once you’re on the ground, there’s a safe area on the island, marked by a blue border. If you’re outside this safe area, you start losing health and could die. The safe area gets smaller as the game goes on, so you have to move to stay safe.

When you start, you don’t have any weapons or supplies, so you have to find them in houses or from other players you defeat. The better stuff is usually in the more dangerous parts of the map. Sometimes, there are red zones that appear, and they get bombed for a short time. If you get hit by one of these bombs, you’ll get hurt or knocked out.

Every now and then, a plane flies by and drops special supplies that you can’t find anywhere else on the island. The game tells you about these things before they happen so you can be ready.

In PUBG Mobile, there are some extra things like daily rewards, missions, team recruiting, improved maps, and a system that helps you pick up items automatically. There are also more computer-controlled players in the mobile version of the game.
