PUBG Mobile 4.1 Update Release Date
The PUBG Mobile 4.1 update is officially releasing on November 6, 2025, for global players, while users in Vietnam and Korea will get it one day earlier, on November 5. Android players can expect downloads to start early morning, iOS around 9 AM, with phased rollouts to manage traffic. PUBG MOBILE JAPAN, posting on X via @PUBGMOBILE_JP, announced that the update to Version 4.1.0 will take place on Thursday, November 6th.
If you’ve ever sat there mashing ‘update’ while staring at the clock, you know the pain and the anticipation. Some of my group chat friends, for what it’s worth, have already started asking for backup wifi plans—just in case too many people pile on at once.
PUBG Mobile 4.1 Update Release Timing
The patch drops in a staggered fashion:
-
Vietnam (Google Play): 30% rollout at 12:30, 70% at 14:30, 100% at 16:30 on November 5.
-
Korea/Japan: 100% complete by 07:30, November 5.
-
Taiwan: 100% by 08:30, November 6.
-
Globally: 30% at 07:00, 50% at 09:30, 100% at 15:30, November 6.
-
App Store (iOS Global): Full update at 15:30, November 6.
Yes, it’s a bit complicated like timing your coffee breaks so you’re at peak freshness for jumping into Penguinville. Indian BGMI players get the 4.1 patch a few days later, around November 13–14 in the morning. There’s always that one friend who posts “Is it out yet?” every 20 minutes. This is why.
What’s New in PUBG Mobile 4.1?
The headline act is the Frosty Funland mode. PUBG Mobile’s classic battlefields, Erangel, Livik, and Vikendi, go full winter carnival. Think Penguinville, Penguin Snowmobiles, and quirky AI NPCs that can actually fight by your side or hand out buffs and loot. The Ninja Penguin heals or launches attacks, while the Gunsmith Polar Bear is your ticket to a Salted Fish Rocket Launcher, assuming you complete his missions.
Mobility upgrades play into the chaos, too:
-
Penguin Snowball Launcher: For getting airborne, unintentionally or not.
-
Magic Ice Skates: Yes, you can slide into fights. Strafing just got colder.
-
Amphibious Penguin Snowmobile: Throw snowballs, chip damage, cruise on ice.
Major map changes = more tactical ops:
-
Erangel gets a new Boatyard and Water Town, built for vertical plays.
-
Penguin City: High-tier loot in exchange for becoming a beacon—everyone knows where you are the moment you pop that chest.
Balance tweaks this season:
-
Assault rifles deal less long-range damage.
-
Shotguns dialed back a notch.
-
DMR buffs (SKS/SLR) for easier control.
-
FAMAS now rocks new mag options for tactical flexibility.
PUBG MOBILE, posting on X via @PUBGMOBILE, teased the arrival of Version 4.1, featuring Penguinville, new items like the Salted Fish Rocket Launcher and Swordfish Syringe, and the chance to join the 4.1 beta.
