PUBG Mobile Zombie Mode Hands-On

A detail which we paid critical attention to is the recreation of zombies on PUBG Mobile, which we believe Tencent has done with intense detail. The game maker has recreated the Resident Evil 2 zombies similar to the original ones right down to their hand movements. The classic bosses like the Tyrant with its hat are also present, and even that one imitates the move from Resident Evil 2. The short range attacks and other movements of the Tyrant have also been brought to PUBG Mobile very accurately. Although the common PUBG players will easily dismiss these details, it is nice to know that Tencent has paid meticulous attention to the details of the Resident Evil association.

PUBG Mobile Day and Night Cycle, Stable Release Date and More

More additions to PUBG Mobile 0.11.0 include the day and night cycle wherein players will know when the gameplay is transitioning from dawn to dusk and vice versa. Like one would expect, there are going to be more zombies during the night time which will make survival tougher. However, if you collect enough ammo, health packs, and other gear, then you can use them to take the zombies down. The usual hazards of PUBG Mobile like the shrinking map and human opponents remain in their place.

During our testing of the PUBG Mobile Beta version, we found that we had to turn on the squad feature to pair up with three more players to increase our chances of survival. We also found that because of multiple threats in the gameplay, navigating was easier with the squad than alone and even defeating the monsters like Tyrant was an easier endeavour. Even with a low player count, the gameplay felt hectic because there were too many elements in the game. We expect that when the game makes its way to the stable version, then the zombie mode will finally force the players to turn on the squad feature. We can also imagine players unmuting other players, so they will be able to better coordinate on the map.

Although Tencent has not announced when it will be rolling out the PUBG Mobile 0.11.0 update with zombies, according to Tencent’s previous update timelines, we expect it to land sometime in next week.
