PUBG’s newest vehicle is also its wildest, speeding across icy rivers and over snow-dappled hills. If you don’t care about being spotted, however, you can throw caution to the wind and just speed around on the slippery, sliding snowmobile. The developers envision Vikendi as a squad map, where groups of players can find lots of cover behind walls, rocks and trees.

In Vikendi, there are fewer windows to cover and fewer lanes to watch, which the team hopes will conjure up plenty of head-to-head battles.Īway from civilisation are dense forests and plenty of places to hide.

Their layouts funnel players into interesting conflicts, says Curd, and contrast with the likes of Miramar’s Los Leones. There are regular towns and cities, too, created to thrust players into conflict more often. “And we certainly have motivations for why towns are the way they are, how the roads flow, what happened to some of these locations, but we much prefer that players explore for themselves, looking for Easter eggs and take some time to check out the map.” “We have an internal team lore,” he said.
