PUBG Update 13.2 Patch Notes

Update 13.2 has arrived for PUBG, and here is the full list of changes and fixes added with this patch.

The update brings about several changes including, a new trunk system, a new P90 SMG weapon, a new Blue Zone Grenade weapon, a new casual mode, and much more.  The update is expected to drop on PC first on September 8th, and then on consoles a week later on September 16th.

“After much consideration and debate, we’ve decided to remove tap-strafing from Apex Legends in patch 10.1,” Respawn has said on Twitter.

Here is everything new with Apex Legends update 10.1:-

New Weapon: P90

In this update, we are adding the fan-favorite P90 SMG to Care Packages. The P90 is our first Care Package SMG since the original Tommy Gun, and as such, we made sure it is a worthy addition. It comes loaded with its own unique 5.7mm High Powered ammo, which is capable of longer-range combat, unlike our other SMGs. It also comes with a Cheek Pad, Handguard, Laser, and Silencer pre-attached and non-detachable.

It also features dual optics that allow for fast switching between close-range and medium-range combat. Use the Holographic Sight for nearby foes and Flip on the Flipsight for added magnification when they make a run for it.
It comes paired with 250 rounds of 5.7mm ammo in the Care Package.

A single magazine holds up to 50 rounds which you (and your foes) can see deplete live as you’re firing due to the magazine’s translucent design. With the translucent magazine keeping you aware of the high Rate of Fire and the Laser helping you keep track of your targets, the P90 is a solid addition to your loadout.

• Spawns on all maps
• Equipped with all attachments right out of the crate:
  Silencer
  Laser
  50 round magazine
  Non-detachable small low profile sight with some magnification
• Ammo type
  5.7mm
  Damage: 35
  Maximum Effective Range: Up to 300m
  Rate of Fire: 1,000 RPM

Taego Updates

Introducing the new pickup truck, Porter, exclusive on Taego! The Porter is Hyundai Motor Company’s representative commercial truck, which was first introduced in 1977. Since then it has been carrying a lot of loads based on its solid basics and excellent durability. It is the only vehicle on PUBG available with the Trunk System, a new feature to be introduced below. Porter is a truck capable of carrying large loads and up to four passengers at the same time. Get your chicken dinner with the use of Porter which can easily run on any types of terrain with the support of the permanent four-wheel system!

• Drivetrain: All-Wheel Drive
• Maximum number of passengers: Four
• Trunk System is available and the capacity is 400
• Maximum Speed: 130 km/h
• HP: 1,200

New Feature: Trunk System

With the Trunk System, you can maximize the acquisition of items for victory on Taego. Use the compartment of the Porter to load various items and take them out when needed. If the vehicle gets blown up, all the items in the compartment will also be destroyed. If you desire to keep your items safe, make sure your vehicle is safe!

• Any item that can be placed in your inventory and weapons, helmets, vests, backpacks can be loaded into the Trunk.
  However, due to the weight of weapons, helmets, vests, and bags, it may not be possible to load large quantities.
• Only available on Taego with Porter vehicles.
• The Trunk system can be accessed with the interaction key when not onboard. When onboard, it can be accessed by opening the inventory.
• All items in the compartment will be lost if the vehicle is destroyed.

• Item weight depending on their types are as follows:
  When a weapon with attachments is placed in the trunk, attachment weight is added and loaded into the trunk with attachments attached.

New Weapon: Blue Zone Grenade

Introducing the Blue Zone Grenade! This throwable item can be used effectively if you want to deal damage in a broader area for a certain period of time. Especially in situations where you want to lure enemies out of a building. The Blue Zone Grenade creates a round blue zone with a maximum radius of ten meters, lasting for five seconds. It maintains its full size for five seconds, then decreases and disappears over another 5 seconds.

• The blue zone gets as big as ten meters in radius and lasts for five seconds.
• It remains in its full size for five seconds and then shrinks and disappears for another five seconds.
• It does not explode underwater.
  • But, when activated near water, it gives damage to players inside the water.
• Damage: 10/second
• If you are already in the Blue Zone and are in range of an additional Blue Zone Grenade, additional damage will be applied.
  • Blue Zone + Blue Zone Grenade = Both damages apply
  • Blue Zone Grenade + Blue Zone Grenade = Both damages apply
