A new update has arrived in Season 10 of PUBG!
Update 10.3 is here with an assortment of new features and performance upgrades including a new Weapon Sound Selection system, some lighting improvements for Karakin, and even the ability to emote with your teammates.
This new update is on PC servers now and will arrive on consoles later.
Looking for all the info? Here's what you need to know about update 10.3 in PUBG.
PUBG 10.3 Patch Notes
Test Server Match Settings
To ensure smooth matchmaking and allow players to experience the lighting and weather changes specific to Karakin, queues are limited to Normal Matches with Karakin being the one available map. This temporary change is only for the Test Server and doesn’t impact queues on Live Servers.
11.1 Update
In consideration of the PGI.S tournament schedule, the next monthly update will be later than usual. Also, from next Season the general structure will change and we’ll have more details to share with you as we get closer to release.
Weapon Sound Select System
As previously introduced in last December’s Dev Letter, we’re happy to be implementing the Weapon Sound Select System. This feature allows players to select between the original and remastered versions of certain weapon sounds.
Supported Weapons:
- M249
- M416
- Kar98k
- SKS
Select your preference from the Settings Menu, under the Audio tab.
Karakin Map Improvements
Karakin Lighting Improvements
Karakin has received lighting pass, improving overall lighting and giving each area it’s own unique feel and tone.
General bug fixes across the map to improve the player experience.
Kicking AFK Players in Training Mode
Much like in TDM, players who AFK in Training Mode will be removed from the session, with a 10-second warning prior to removal.
Players will receive a message after being kicked, to let you know why you’ve been removed.
Players who AFK in Training Mode after queuing for Ranked with our Dual Matchmaking will be removed from the Training Mode session, but remain in their Ranked queue.
Emote With Your Squad Mates
Certain emotes can now be used together, in sync with teammates! Emotes which support this feature are displayed with two characters in the emote image.
Sync-up your emotes with players within a 15-meter radius of your character or in the lobby on the main menu.
You can choose to stop emoting at any time, independent of the person who had initiated the emotes.
Free-look camera is supported while emoting in TPP only.
View each emote and the maximum number of players who can sync-up with you at once under Customization, Emotes, on the main menu.
You’re unable to use other interactions while emoting, such as vaulting or picking up items.
Improved Store Experience
Improved G-Coin messaging on purchases to ensure players understand the value of their G-Coin purchase.
Previously, any bonus G-Coin was bundled into one G-Coin total. Now, bonus G-Coin is also displayed as an independent figure.
Added Currency FilterYou can sort and browse the items by BP or G-Coin.
Season 10 Ends Soon
Survivor Pass Schedule
Survivor Pass: Breakthrough comes to an end on March 24. You still have two weeks from that point to claim all your rewards and access the coupon shop. Although, you’ll no longer be able to purchase or use Level-Up Tokens, purchase the Premium Survivor Pass, or complete missions from that date.

- March 24, 11 AM KST

In regards to the Ranked Season schedule, stay tuned and we’ll keep you updated with specific Ranked announcements.
Reputation System Update
The Reputation System introduced is one of our newest features, implemented in Update 10.2 and is designed to encourage positive player interactions within the community. We have received lots of player feedback so far and a common trend we’re seeing is that some players feel certain penalties are too harsh.
We hear your concerns and are making the following changes with Update 10.3:
- Normal Matches: Exiting a match while in the starting area, prior to boarding the plane will NOT negatively impact your reputation.
- Ranked Matches: You will lose reputation for exiting Ranked Matches, even if exiting while in the starting area prior to the plane leaving. There are some exceptions, which you can read below.
- You can leave a Ranked Match up to 5 minutes after (but not before) the plane has taken off without losing reputation, in situations where matchmaking has provided you with a random teammate who has then exited the match.
- Additionally, the same applies if matchmaking fails to provide you with at least one random teammate after queuing for Ranked Squads.
We’ll continue reading your feedback and make additional improvements in the future. Please, let us know your thoughts on these change.
