PUB Mobile Livik map: Details

The new map will be much smaller than previous PUBG Maps, even smaller than Sanhok. In an interview, the developers said that the map is designed to offer a 15-minute game, which should make it ideal for working professionals or anyone else who may not have the time to play through the 30-40 minute match on maps like Erangel or Miramar. It also features only 50 players instead of the usual, which should result in shorter games with faster pacing as compared to the current set of maps. 

The idea behind the new map is very reminiscent of Garena Free Fire and even PUBG Mobile Lite. 

PUBG Mobile Livik map: New additions

The developers also revealed that the new map will feature a brunch of new weapons exclusive to the new map. This includes the P90 SMG that was initially limited to Team Death Match Arena Mode. There is also the MK12 burst-fire sniper rifle that should add a new tactical element to matches. Finally, the developers note that A majority of the weapons found in the game will now be able to use the extended barrel attachment. The idea being that players will be able to use their starting weapons much more effectively in the late game stages as they may not have time to scavenge for new weapons.

It should also be noted that the map features a new unique vehicle, the Monster Truck.

Karakin and Erangel 2.0

While the developers didn’t mention Karakin, they did talk about Erangel 2.0 and said that they were “putting the final touches on the map.” While they did not specify an exact time when the map will be available, they did ask players to look forward to the second half of 2020. So we can expect the new version of the classic map to be available later this year.

PS5 unboxing videos show how huge the console is

To say that Sony has been a bit coy when it comes to the PlayStation 5 would be a bit of an understatement. The company only recently announced the India pricing of the console and now finally we have unboxings of the console going live and one thing is pretty clear - The console is HUGE!  So what do you get in the box? Well… besides the console itself (and the manuals), you get: DualSense controller USB Type-C charging cable for the controller HDMI 2.1 cable Power cable for the console (no bulky adapter/box) Plastic stand Now the plastic stand is used if you place the console on its side. As there is no flat surface on either side of the console, the stand will ensure that it remains still. But you can also place it when propping up the console vertically. However, it does seem like the PS5 can stand on its own vertically if need be. IGN’s unboxing video gives you a good idea of how to place the stand. All of the unboxing videos mention the size of the console because it is pr...
