Taego Tweaks

The map will see a variety of world improvements based on player data collected throughout the last few months. After looking at the map’s most popular combat zones, objects and terrain improvements will be made to areas with a 75 percent win rate or higher. The map will also introduce Error Spaces, which will spawn weapons and supplies that were otherwise exclusive to other maps. Error Spaces will be available in Normal, Ranked and Custom Matches on Taego.

Erangel Adjustments

In addition to the aforementioned Halloween-themed updates, Erangel will see updates made to the Pochinki drop point. Until Update 14.1, players have found it challenging to escape Pochinki after early match combat without a vehicle. As a result, adjustments will be made to the Church building and new waterways, cover and fences will be added.
