PUBG Console Patch Notes 13.1: Server Maintenance Time, New Updates, and Features. Krafton thanks all the great feedback and player comments regarding the release of Taego with Update 12.2. The Player’s constructive feedback motivated Krafton to make lots of changes and improvements to Taego; let’s jump into it! Today developers have announced the 13.1 patch notes for the PUBG Consoles. This update will be available in the game later this week. Let’s take a look at the patch notes.
LIVE MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE
- PDT: August 11, 9 PM – August 12, 3:30 AM
- CEST: August 12, 6 AM – 12:30 PM
- KST/JST: August 12, 1 PM – 7:30 PM
PUBG Console Patch Notes 13.1: MULTI CARE PACKAGES
We have received a lot of player feedback asking for an increase in the amount of Care Package airdrops available in each match. Let’s fix that! Previously, it was generally only one player who’d get all the loot from each drop, with not much left to go around. With this update, we’ve dramatically increased the number of Care Packages, through additional small airdrops, allowing more players the chance to hunt them down and loot them up.
[Console] Live servers will undergo maintenance for approximately 6 hours 30 mins on Aug 11th, 9:00pm PDT / Aug 12th, 6:00am CEST / Aug 12th, 1:00pm KST /JST.
Once complete, Update 13.1 will be available on Live Servers.https://t.co/fWa3YRk3JO

PUBG Patch Notes: Emergency Landing
The emergency landing plane moves faster than the standard starting plane, but the fall height varies greatly, resulting in a varied falling duration. The farther you jump at the beginning of the flight, the farther you can travel. The later you jump off, the shorter you can travel, like the plane, altitute decreases. If you decide not to jump off the plane, you’ll take 50% damage at the end of your journey.
