More Care Packages
PUBG devs have heard the fans and will be upping the number of Care Packages that drop during a single match. This will be achieved by adding more small airdrops and not reserving all of the loot for one player.
Players will also be able to duck behind the additional Care Packages and use them as a hardcover.
Care Packages in numbers:
- Standard Care Packages: One
- Small Care Packages: 5 – 15
Multi-drop Care Package contents:
- Ammo, healing items, throwables. Standard Care Package spawn items (low probability)

Emergency landing
PUBG's Update 13.1 has introduced the emergency landing plane. This bird moves faster than the standard starting plane, but the fall height varies greatly, resulting in a varied falling duration.
You can use the fall height to your advantage and control where you land: jumping out at the beginning of the flight will let you travel farther. If you stay on the plane you'll suffer 50 per cent damage at the (violent) end of its journey.
