PUBG Mobile has yet another exciting patch cooking in the kitchen. While the details of PUBG Mobile patch 3.9 have yet to be revealed, we know that it will include a few new gameplay mechanics, vehicles, and even a crossover event from beta tests. While beta players can test out these features, others will need to until the PUBG Mobile 3.9 update’s release date.

Tencent has already launched two beta rounds for version 3.9. The takeaways and notes from these beta versions are live on PUBG Mobile’s official website, and they give us an early perspective of what to expect from PUBG Mobile patch 3.9 when it releases. While some beta features may not make it to the live version, most remain intact and become available in the final version of the update.

When will PUBG Mobile 3.9 update be released?

PUBG Mobile Patch 3.9 is expected to go live on Wednesday, July 9 or Thursday, July 10, 2025. We’ve made this assumption based on Tencent’s recent release schedule for PUBG Mobile updates.

PUBG Mobile follows a relatively consistent update cycle. The game receives a major content patch every 58 to 62 days. These patches almost always land mid-week. Here’s a look at the recent timeline:

If we start the count from the release of patch 3.8 on May 8, we estimate the 3.9 update will go live around July 9–10, 2025.

Everything New Coming in the PUBG Mobile 3.9 Update

• New Themed Mode: Neon Outpost
• A cyberpunk-themed zone filled with futuristic design, new mechanics, and unique sub-areas like Boxing Ring, Black Market, and an Energy Hub.
• New Vehicles: Mega Truck & Electromagnetic Tank
• Mega Truck seats four players, and it’s heavily armored.
• Electromagnetic Tanks can fire electromagnetic rounds.
• Cosmic Hoverboard
• A Portable transport device for fast traversal, which can’t be used while firing weapons.
• Transformers Collaboration Event
• PUBG Mobile is set to partner with Transformers for a limited-time crossover.
• Each Transformer has unique melee or ranged abilities.
• When Transformers clash, a special Nemesis Showdown zone appears.
• New Weapon: AR: ASM Abakan
• Fires 5.56mm rounds.
• Three modes: full-auto, two-shot burst, and single shot.

While playing the new patch, you may also stumble upon other new mechanics, like motorcycles and bicycles becoming able to drift. PUBG Mobile generally releases around four beta releases before fully launching a new version, so we’ll likely learn more about the patch in the upcoming days.

How to download the PUBG Mobile 3.9 update

You can download the PUBG Mobile 3.9 update from the Google Play Store or the Apple App Store, depending on your operating system (Android and iOS), when the patch releases in July. Regional rollout times may vary slightly, so don’t worry if it doesn’t show up right away.
