PUBG Update 15.1 Adds a New Mountain Bike Vehicle, Weapon Balance, and a Christmas Event Inspired by Kakao Friends Land
PUBG Update 15.1 introduces a slew of new features.

PUBG receives its latest update, which includes a slew of new features, including the Mountain Bike, a brand-new method to traverse the battlegrounds. In addition, the map rotation will be altered, with Erangel, Miramar, Vikendi, Taego, and Sanhok joining the rotation in normal matchups and Erangel, Miramar, and Taego joining the rotation in ranked matches.
The designers have decided to keep Taego in the map rotation for Season 15, stating that the community has reacted well to the new map and that it has become quite popular among the player base. Haven could not be included in the map rotation for Season 15 because the team would have had to adjust the map selection UI for regions with map selection without comprehensive testing, according to the developers.
PUBG Update 15.1 Patch Notes
New Vehicle: Mountain Bike
The mountain bike has been in high demand among the player population, and the developers have finally answered by providing a unique way for players to travel the landscape. The Mountain Bike can be found on the map's outskirts as a lootable object in its folded state.
The Mountain Bike foregoes armor and protection in favor of stealth, as the lack of an engine allows players to move across the terrain without being noticed. The player can also fire while riding the Mountain Bike, giving players plenty of opportunities to use stealth tactics.
