The highly anticipated PUBG Mobile and BGMI 3.8 Update is finally on the horizon, and it promises a thrilling new era for players. From the A13 Royal Pass rewards to the arrival of legendary ultimate sets, new upgradable weapon skins, and some unfortunate scams uncovered within BGMI’s ecosystem — there’s a lot to cover. Here’s a detailed breakdown of all the major highlights you need to know.

A13 Royal Pass 1 to 100 Rewards Overview

The A13 Royale Pass offers a full spectrum of rewards from Level 1 to Level 100. Players can expect:

• New Mythic Outfits with exclusive visual effects.

• Weapon Skins for popular guns like M416 and AKM.

• Upgradable Backpack Skins with level-based visual upgrades.

• Exclusive Vehicle Skins featuring a premium design for cars like the Dacia and motorcycle.

• Unique Emotes and Avatars matching the A13 theme.

• Special Headgear and Masks that complement the mythic sets.

The Royale Pass will also feature a Free Redeem Event where players can exchange points and fragments for exclusive items, providing non-paying users a fair chance to grab valuable cosmetics.

New Ultimate Set: Joker Arrival

The second Ultimate Set of the update brings the much-awaited Joker-themed outfit. This legendary set features:

• A dark, chaotic design reminiscent of classic villain archetypes.

• Premium headgear and costume design available through daily spins costing 10 UC each.

• A crystal redemption system allowing players to gather mini crystals to forge Ultimate outfits.

Players are encouraged to spin daily at minimal cost even if they aren’t actively chasing the full set. Accumulating crystals will be vital for upcoming events tied to the 3.8 update, especially for free pre-order events where jam crystals can be exchanged for rare items.

Upgradable Gun Skin Return

An exciting comeback in the 3.8 update is the return of upgradable gun skins:

• One confirmed weapon is the Pan Skin “Rock for Roll”, which will feature upgradable kill effects, broadcasts, and final forms through leveling.

• While skins like the DP-28 will be included in events, note that some will not have upgradable features and will remain static skins.

Lucky Spin events starting from May 20-25 will introduce some of these new skins.

BGI Scam Exposed: Adaptive Pack Pricing

One of the biggest controversies of this update cycle is the Adaptive Pack scam within BGMI. Players previously could purchase:

• 200 UC for ₹135

• 500 UC for ₹335

• 800 UC for ₹600

• 1200 UC for ₹975

However, in the newly reintroduced Adaptive Pack, prices for UC have remained the same in cash but reduced the amount of UC given. Now, players get:

• 160 UC instead of 200 UC for ₹135 — a clear loss of value.

This sneaky adjustment has caused outrage across the community. Despite slight discounts in “apparent” UC amounts, the real monetary value offered has significantly dropped. BGMI players are advised not to invest in Adaptive Packs anymore.

Upcoming Outfits and Skins in 3.8 Update

Mythic Outfits

Several Mythic-level outfits are confirmed for the 3.8 patch:

• Blue Outfit to be featured in a Lucky Spin event.

• Yellow “Lemon” Outfit complete with matching headgear — a vibrant and colorful skin.

• New SK-Inspired Outfit primarily designed for female characters but available for male characters too.

Each outfit will have matching headgear and backpack skins with three-level visual upgrades.

Pan and Weapon Upgrades

The “Rock for Roll” pan skin will be available for upgrade up to Level 5, featuring:

• Advanced Form

• Killfeed Effects

• Final Illumination Form

Supercar Collaboration: Mustang Arrival

PUBG Mobile/BGMI’s supercar collaboration continues with the introduction of the Ford Mustang.

• High-detailed 3D models and skins have been revealed.

• Pricing and availability details were already shared earlier and are expected to be high-end, premium purchases.

Blood Raven Ultimate Set News

The Blood Raven Ultimate Set remains one of the most awaited returns for players. While it hasn’t officially resurfaced yet:

• It is speculated to return in the coming 2-3 seasons.

• Players are advised to continue spinning daily 10 UC spins to accumulate crystals for potential pre-order exchanges.

The upcoming first Ultimate set of 3.8 appears to be inspired by both Blood Raven and Jester suits — combining dark, gothic elements with chaotic aesthetics, making it potentially the best Ultimate set ever released.

Daily Fortune Pack and Special Bundles

The Daily Fortune Pack event is making a return:

• Available at 7:30 AM, not 5:30 as previously thought.

• Offers bundles like:

  • 60 UC for ₹88

  • 120 UC for ₹154

  • 253 UC for ₹510

Another important note:

• The ₹10 UC bundles (25 UC for ₹10) will not return in 3.7.

• They may make a comeback only in 3.8, but with BGMI’s recent activities, expectations should be kept low.

Important Advice for Players

Given the recent developments:

• Do not spend money on Adaptive Packs.

• Be strategic with UC spending.

• Focus on accumulating crystals and pre-order bonuses.

• Prioritize major events like Royal Passes, Lucky Spins, and confirmed Ultimate Sets over random micro-transactions.

Conclusion

The 3.8 update for PUBG Mobile and BGMI brings an exciting array of new rewards, outfits, vehicles, and skins. However, players must remain cautious regarding scams like the Adaptive Pack fiasco. Prioritizing smart spending strategies, participating in daily spins, and saving for significant upcoming events will ensure maximum value from this season.

Stay tuned for further developments as the 3.8 update officially rolls out in the coming weeks.
