New PUBG Gameplay Update

Ledge Grab

Features

• Since you are able to reach places that were unreachable before, you should show off your amazing gameplay with nice strategies on reaching places that can surprise your enemies.

How to use the ledge grab in PUBG PC

• The ledge grab is triggered by either jumping or vaulting (using space bar), after that, you must keep pressing the space bar at the right timing in midair then you can move to the targeted area.
• The ledge grab can be canceled even if it’s already triggered. You will fall down to the ground by using the similar way of canceling the vault/climbing.

Below here is what PUBG Development team said to you:

You are still unable to hang on the railings or slide down them yet, even with this initial iteration of ledge grab. Nevertheless, the ledge grab will be upgraded twice in total, even including this update too. The PUBG dev team will never stop researching and working in order to activate the features that have just been mentioned from the other update in the forthcoming time.

The whole PUBG dev team speculates that there will be the same adoption period for ledge grab as they had with the first release of vaulting. They are making an effort to identify any enhancements or alterations that must be carried out throughout the early phases of the release of the feature.

Make sure you give the new ledge grab a try and don’t forget to send your feedback to the development team so they will be able to upgrade and better the feature more than that, and this is the highest priority to them.

The PUBG Dev team will keep doing their best to make sure the feature is as steady and effective as possible. Your interest and feedback are always welcome!
