Transformers mode and four other best features of PUBG Mobile 3.9 update

1) Transformers mode

The Transformers mode has become a talking point since the PUBG Mobile 3.9 update beta arrived. You can summon Optimus Prime and Megatron mid-game and control them. Prime transforms into his semi-truck mode while Megatron takes his tank shape to chase the enemy. Prime can carry a whole squad in his vehicle form.

Only two players get to summon them each game, and they would need the Spacebridge Beacon to do so. Prime attacks with his axe, while Megatron shoots energy beams. Once a Prime is near a Megatron in a match, an energy sphere forms around them, forcing a duel.

Whoever is defeated gets sucked back into space and the other robot receives an energy cube which charges the robot and unlocks a new skill. You get a special loot from space after summoning the bots from space.
