PUBG's New Map Revealed - Savage
Tuesday 3rd April 2018, 04:08 | written by: Gabriel SciberrasAfter two solid maps, it seems that Bluehole is ready to release a third - a map which is rather different to the other two. Going with the name of 'Savage', the new map is said to be much smaller in terms of dimensions compared to the other two with a few other new ingredients. The knowledge we have up until now is quite limited, though upcoming testing periods will shed much more light as soon as next week.
The testing period started this Monday through an invite-only basis, so it's probably that the small majority of viewers have had the chance to play it. This period will go on for 3 days up until 5th April, so check out your favourite content creators to get a first-hand peek. As of right now however, you may dance across the tropical island by gaining access to a beta key which gives the possibility to register. Head over to this site if you're interested: mapbeta.playbattlegrounds.com. Here's what the corporation had to say regarding the early access:
"At first, we are going to do a more limited test for Codename: Savage to make sure that nothing is too broken. Again, it’s a super early build, we hope you understand. The next test will be bigger! We’ll update you on Monday about how you can participate. Keep an eye on our social channels to maximize your chances of getting a key. We promised you that you would get a chance to try the new map very early on and we are delivering on that promise. We haven’t released content so early in its development since our alpha testing stage. We’re doing this because we want to start getting your feedback as soon as possible and drive the development in the right direction."
Losing some followers to the popular Fortnite, a smaller map will definitely force more gunfights and host close-quarters combat. This map is acting as the milestone of a year since PUBG was initially released to the public in early access.
Keep your eyes peeled for more information.
