PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds gets Karakin, a tiny, chaotic new map

PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds is still one of the biggest games in the world, and now developer PUBG Corp. is giving fans more reasons to return. As part of the launch of its Season 6 content, the studio is adding a new map along with a fresh battle pass and explosive device.

PUBG Season 6 begins January 22 on PC. It launches for console a week later on January 30. The highlight feature is the Karakin map, which is a tiny 2 kilometers on each side. This makes it a quarter of the size of Sanhok, the previous smallest map. And unlike PUBG’s previous arenas, the developer is capping out Karakin at 64 players. This should make all the map’s matches both fast and furious.
