PUBG Mobile 3.9 update brings a new Transformers mode

The Transformers mode is the new themed mode added with the PUBG mobile 3.9 update. Optimus Prime and Megatron crossed several dimensions to arrive at Krafton's most popular Battle Royale universe. You can summon them using the Spacebridge Beacon. Every match, two players get to summon the Transformers and receive the powers of these mega robots in both their vehicle and robot forms.

The norms of the battleground strategies will be broken as you get to pursue enemies in the vehicle form and rain bullets on them in the robot form.

• Vehicle forms: The red semi-truck of Optimus Prime and the purple tank of Megatron pay homage to the classic "Transformers: Generation 1" animated series.
• Exclusive Skills: Optimus Prime's axe and Megatron's cannon are true replicas of their iconic weapons.
• Battle Styles: Both Transformers bots stay true to character in how they fight. Optimus Prime charges forward courageously, while Megatron exercises deliberate control and suppression over the battleground.

The Spacebridge Beacons will spawn randomly on the map. The color of the sky will change, and a notification stating 'a connection has been established with Cybertron' will pop up on the screen mid-game. Once it happens, you can use the Spacebridge Beacon to summon the leaders of the Autobots and Decepticons.

You can upgrade both bots using the Energeon Cubes to unlock more powerful skills.
