Looks like PUBG players on console and PC are around to get a new season. This also means new guns, vehicles and a whole lot of features for an exciting gameplay. PUBG's official Twitter handle has posted a short teaser video, revealing that Season 8 is coming to PCs and consoles on July 22nd and July 30th respectively. The video doesn't really talk about what all will be exactly added in the upcoming season but did mention ‘For the Jungle you must wait, until it's PUBG Season 8,' indicating that a lot of action might be there in the Sanhok Map in particular. There could also be a new map altogether, who knows.

But that said, one can at least expect some new skins for guns, new costumes based on the theme and more offers.
