PUBG Mobile update 0.19.0 update is just a day away and to build the excitement, the official patch notes have been released. The new update brings a brand new map called ‘Livik’ which was earlier available in beta as ‘Secret Map.’ This will be the first-ever exclusive map build only for the mobile version of the battle royale game.
Update 0.19.0 will be rolling out tomorrow (July 7) but expected the Season 14 Royale Pass 'Spark the Flame' to arrive around July 14. This means that today is the last day to finish Season 13 Royale Pass missions while your tiers and ranks will be updated once the new season arrives.
