THE new PUBG Mobile Season 8 update has rolled out and fans are getting fresh content and features to try out. But what new plans do Tencent have for their smash-hit mobile game?

Season 8 kicks off this week and includes a range of new content for gamers to enjoy, including the upcoming seasonal events and rewards.

But what new stuff could be coming to the game in 2019? And how is Tencent planning on developing the popular mobile title alongside the original PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds?

The two versions continue to offer the same kind of content but they both cater to different audiences.

And from the sounds of it, new crossover events and eSports tournaments are going to continue to be a big part of PUBG Mobile over the coming months.

We got to ask Tencent Esports Director James Yang some questions on what might be coming next to the game.

One of the things we asked is where PUBG Mobile is most popular, with the latest data suggesting places like India and Australia.

This wasn’t something that could be answered by Tencent but we did find out more on how the development team tries to keep such a large, global audience happy.

“PUBG Mobile has proven to be an extremely high-quality, enjoyable franchise that satisfies a large player base around the world,” Yang explains.

“Since its launch, we have published more than 10 versions with over 1,000 updates, due to the unique environments of different countries and regions for which we provide special optimizations and adjustments.
