Added bandits as enemies traverse the Metro Royale battleground, which can be raided for additional loot and supplies. Mysterious mutants from Metro series also threaten players from the shadows, offering high risk and high reward. In Metro Royale mode, players need to arm themselves and enter the battlefield, then defeat enemies, search for supplies, score loot, get better gear, escape and amass a fortune.

The Metro Royale gameplay lobby is accessible through the metro tunnel entrance in the PUBG MOBILE main menu lobby, and includes a complete auxiliary system and features such as:

  • Black Market – In this Metro Royale Shop, players can purchase supplies and new equipment before entering matches and can sell the supplies they bring out of Metro Royale for Metro Cash.

  • Command Post – At the Command Post, players can check Favorability with non-player characters (NPCs), read NPC backstories and give them Favorability-boosting gifts. Higher Favorability increases player chances of receiving resources from NPCs in-game.

Besides the Metro Royale mode, there will also be Metro themed content in the Classic Mode. Underground Metro stations, Metro monsters, and a Radiation Zone will appear on the classic Erangel map. The Aurora, which is under repair, will appear on Spawn Island. Players can get around quickly using 2 of 4 metro lines that will randomly appear in Erangel.
