PUBG Labs: Faction Warmode

Posted: 04 Sep 2020 12:01 AM PDT



Hello players,

Last year, we introduced PUBG Labs as a way to experiment with fun game settings and try out new features and modes before they're ready for normal matches.

While we haven't had a new LABS mode in a while, we've seen you asking for new event modes and different ways to play.

To help scratch that itch, we're spinning up Labs again, starting with an already existing mode: Faction Warmode. This time around, you'll be able to form your own 8 person party before entering, so grab your friends and get ready rumble!

Faction Warmode is a team vs team (8v8) match that takes place on Sanhok. When you spawn, you'll be able to choose from one of several different "Spawn Kits" that each have their own load-out. Your team has to work together to earn points by eliminating enemies within a small safe zone to reach the point threshold!

Faction Warmode Schedule
  • September 4th (Fri) 1600 (KST) - September 7th (Mon) 1600 (KST)
Matchmaking
  • 8 person squads, 8 vs 8 combat
  • You can invite players to form up your squad of 8 and matchmaking will automatically fill any missing slots.
  • TPP / FPP
Faction Warmode Rules


  • Faction Warmode takes place on Sanhok during several different weather types.
  • Each match takes place in a small Safe Zone surrounded by a static Blue Zone.

  • Respawn from the plane upon death

      • Kill an enemy player: +3 points
      • Down an enemy player: +1 point
      • Revive a teammate: +1 point

Faction Warmode Known Issues
  • In situations where a teammate reconnects to the game while dead, others in the team may be unable to see the UI which indicates they're a part of your team.
