When Fortnite brought back his original map for a few weeks, broke records for the number of players. It was to be hoped that other titles that have changed over the years would see this and want to follow suit. In fact, it is the game that Fortnite He imitated for his ‘pitched battle’ mode the one that he will now imitate. The developers of PUBG Battlegrounds announced that the game’s original map, Classic Erangel, will be back for a limited time.
Although Erangel is still present in the game, it has changed a lot and there are many who are nostalgic for the map they knew when the game came out in 2017, more than six years ago.
When is the original Classic Erangel map returning to PUBG Battlegrounds?
This scenario returns to the game as part of an event that will take place on different dates depending on the platform you play on.
- PC: from Tuesday, May 14 to Tuesday, May 28, 2024
- Consoles: from Thursday, May 23 to Thursday, June 6, 2024
During this time the classic Erangel map will replace the current Erangel map in battle royale matches.
But it’s not just the first map that returns to PUBG. The game’s original launch arsenal and classic user interface will also be back.. Balance will also be affected and weapons will have less recoil.
Other changes that the game games will have during the event will be the following:
- Permanent cloudy weather
- The Tommy Gun will appear in the aid pack
- Players will have more health
- We will find helmets and clothes on the floor
Now we wonder what will be the next game to draw on the nostalgia of its first map.
