PUBG Food Truck in new 19.2 update is tankier than the tank


  • New PUBG 19.2 patch introduces a tanky food truck
  • Also dynamic weather systems on Deston
  • And a refinement to the animations



The new PUBG 19.2 patch is live and it features a food truck that is… quite interesting from a gameplay perspective. It’s fast – and more importantly, it’s tanky af. We’ll get back to that in a sec.

If you see the new PUBG food truck on Deston, do not think it’ll drop you free Chicken Dinners. It might be carrying enemies: The new PUBG food truck can carry four people, it drives 107 km/h (without boost) – and you can shoot out of the windows. Brilliant.

PUBG Food Truck is crazily tanky

Famous PUBG streamer WackyJacky just revealed that the food truck is quite tanky. Even tankier than the BRDM. Below you’ll find a video from the new PUBG 19.2 update and a comparison between the food truck and BDSM:

New animation refresh

Remember the dev letter on the upcoming Animation Refresh? The update is finally here – our goal with this update is to enhance player experience by improving and refining PUBG: BATTLEGROUNDS’ animation presentation while retaining existing timing and strategy.

The motions should feel different but familiar, and a lot of care and effort went into making sure no timings were changed in this process.
