PUBG Mobile version 0.8.0 release just around the corner, here’s a quick summary of the new features and items expected to be added to the game.
New Map: Sonhok
Sonhok is 4.4×4.4 km in area which is just about one quarter the size of the other maps in game. However, 100 players will be air dropped in every game in the Classic Mode which would spice up things and allow players to engage in gunfights sooner in the game.
New Weapon: QBZ

New Vehicles
Sonhok will see the introduction of the new vehicles UAZ and Muscle car. These vehicles are available to use in the Beta version of PUBG 0.8.0. Both the vehicles are relatively larger in size and can be used for both cover and transportation.
