New Inspirations

Inspirations of Codename: Savage - Volume II

How’d you like to drop from the plane and try to hit a hole like this? That’d be badass right? That’s exactly what we were thinking, which is why we’re working on an underground cave system with plenty methods of escape. We were inspired by a cave system the team found outside of Bangkok. If you’re interested to explore that digitally to get a better idea about what this area is like, check out the Phraya Nakhon Cave.

So how does this inspiration and planning end up looking like on the map? It’s looking pretty amazing. We still have some work to do before we show it off, but we’re excited about rolling it out in the next couple of testing phases.

That’s it for this installment of the Inspirations of Savage. We’re going to begin taking about new weapons and special vehicles (including a Tuk Tuk) soon, so look forward to that!

Thanks for playing PUBG and for being part of open development on Codename: Savage.
