PUBG news: Battlegrounds update adds THESE items – but the odds are stacked against you

PUBG developer Bluehole has released new outfits as part of the latest PC update.

The new Battlegrounds update introduces two new loot crates that are packed with cosmetic items.

Released to celebrate the start of spring, the FEVER crate and the MILITIA crate are currently available on the PUBG test servers.

The new loot boxes will be released in full on February 22.

The FEVER crate contains new items inspired by the fashion of the 1970s and 1980s.

The MILITIA crate, meanwhile, introduces the Erangel resistance force outfit and the Miramar frontiersman outfit.

Bluehole explains more in a new blog post: “FEVER crate with the strong feeling of spring can be purchased with BP and unlocked with Early Bird keys.

“MILITIA crate, which will allow you to show off your combat outfit, is dropped randomly among the four existing crates, and it is free. Don’t miss out on this opportunity to get new outfits!”

Bluehole points out that some players will be able to find the whole set in a single crate if they are lucky.

“As with the Gamescom Invitational Crate, you can get the whole set along with a single item when opening the FEVER crate if you are lucky,” the post continues.

“Keys and BPs will be given out for testing the new crates and items. However, test server inventory will not be carried over to the live servers.

Updated patch notes also reveal the probability of obtaining the free and paid items found within the crates.

The below chart shows the individual drop rate per item that can be earned through the new free/paid crate boxes…
