Donkatsu Medal in PUBG Mobile KR

In the Korean version, AG (Ace Gold) money is not present. It has Donkatsu Medals, which can be utilized to open a few classic and premium crates. Players stand a chance to win exciting rewards from these crates.

Players can likewise get this currency by finishing in-game tasks and events. They can also procure them as part of the every day login reward. Consequently, players can open more crates, spending no actual money.

PUBG Mobile Korea has better rewards regarding login/sign-in events, just like other exclusive crates and events, most of which can be opened with four Donkatsu medals.

It also includes more skins and outfits than the global variant which can be easily gained from the crates for free.
