It will grant access to — Bonus 1,300 G-COIN, Survival Mastery XP + 100% increase, Custom Match capabilities, and In-Game goodies such as the Captain's Camo set, among other things.

He also stated that moving to F2P is the next step in broadening the PUBG IP with material that both new and seasoned players will love, whether it's the game's eight diverse maps, or constantly updated features.
