The campaign launches as part of Green Game Jam organised by Playing For The Planet, an initiative supported by the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) to support the planet in real action through games and raise awareness of environmental protection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Featuring a new official map series, a new in-game event, multiple new challenges for players and exclusive themed rewards for them to earn, Play For Green aims to empower and mobilise the global <strong><em>PUBG MOBILE<\/em><\/strong> playerbase, facilitate the support of key real world conservation projects and showcase how we can come together to create a greener future. The campaign follows a recent global survey of<strong><em> PUBG MOBILE<\/em><\/strong> players which revealed that 88% of players polled are concerned about climate change and the effect this will have on their futures and 91% have already experienced the effects of climate change in their own country.*<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a><\/a><strong><u>The Ruins of Erangel<\/u><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Created in collaboration with UCL professor Mark Maslin, PUBG MOBILE integrated climate related themes into the game, building a new official map series \u2018The Ruins of Erangel\u2019 in World of Wonder, reimagining the iconic heart of Erangel after 100 years of climate change.The Ruins of Erangel takes into account the current rate of climate change, according to relevant geographical data, and imagines the famous \u2018Ruins\u2019 area of Erangels. The research found that in 100 years, without intervention, our planet could suffer the same fate as The Ruins of Erangel, plagued by rampant sandstorms, drought, and a devastating depletion of tree and plant life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Ruins of Erangel: Sandstorm challenges players to gather essential medical packs and face off against one another in a high-stakes challenge of survival. As the impending sandstorm looms, players must carefully manage the timings of their healing to withstand the damage dealt by the storm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The second map, the Ruins Of Erangel: Exploration offers a unique, narrative-driven experience designed to immerse players in a powerful story about the impact of climate change. This map takes players on a journey through a series of checkpoints, each unveiling a new chapter in the tale of Erangel&#8217;s transformation. As<strong><em> PUBG MOBILE<\/em><\/strong> players advance through the map, text prompts appear at each checkpoint, guiding them through the landscape and deepening their understanding of the environmental challenges depicted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Read the exclusive white paper of Prof. Mark Maslin\u2019s research which informed the \u2018Ruins of Erangel\u2019 and provides 10 key ways individuals can also help support the planet <a href=\"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/1-NWdsHzYGG4ajzFaUwg8bibtbhDI21SQ\/edit\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><u>Run for Green<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Through a special in-game event \u2018Run for Green\u2019, running from September 11th to September 24th, players will be able to help real-world environmental projects protect a total of equivalent to over 350,000 sq metres of ecologically vital land across Indonesia, Pakistan and Brazil. During the event, the sprint distance of players across<strong><em> PUBG MOBILE\u2019s<\/em><\/strong> Classic modes will contribute towards server-wide milestones aiding projects across the world in protecting vital habitats and supporting Earth\u2019s precious ecosystem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>The Cerrado Biome Project in Brazil works to preserve one of the world\u2019s most biodiverse savannahs by incentivizing landowners to conserve native vegetation, which plays a crucial role in carbon storage.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>In Indonesia, the Rimba Raya Biodiversity Reserve Project protects one of the last wild populations of orangutans and involves local communities in sustainable practices to reduce human-wildlife conflict.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Finally, in Pakistan, the Delta Blue Carbon \u2013 1 Project focuses on regenerating mangroves in the Indus River Delta, enhancing community resilience against climate change while preventing biodiversity loss.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Through the \u2018Run for Green\u2019 in-game challenge, players will also unlock a series of items and in-game experiences including the special \u2018Preservation Garden\u2019 in Home mode featuring a series of beautiful plants and trees which are currently endangered. The \u2018Preservation Garden\u2019 aims to raise awareness of the importance of the world\u2019s endangered flora and give them a digital home in <strong><em>PUBG MOBILE<\/em><\/strong> for players to learn more about them through interactive signs and enjoy their natural wonder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><u>World Of Wonder Green Creative Contest<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To encourage players to envision a brighter future and engage with climate positive activities, several additional themed items including the majestic yet endangered California Redwood and Giant Baobab trees are also being added to World of Wonder mode.<strong><em> PUBG MOBILE<\/em><\/strong> is inviting its creators to continue the conversation around climate change by using the newly released \u2018Ruins of Erangel\u2019 template in World of Wonder mode, alongside these new items, to raise awareness of current or future issues, and to imagine a better tomorrow.

With initiatives like the \u2018Ruins of Erangel\u2019 maps and the \u2018Run for Green\u2019 event, we\u2019re not just creating immersive content for our players\u2014we\u2019re inspiring a global community to take real-world action. This is gaming with purpose, and <strong><em>PUBG MOBILE<\/em><\/strong> is proud to be at the forefront of this movement.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Prof. Mark Maslin, Climatologist and professor at UCL said: \u201cClimate change is not just a distant threat\u2014it\u2019s a reality that will impact every corner of our world. The \u2018Play for Green\u2019 campaign in <strong><em>PUBG MOBILE<\/em><\/strong> is a powerful tool for raising awareness, offering players a glimpse into a possible future shaped by climate change.

Whether it is making a different choice of what to eat, how to travel or power your home or using our voice to speak out, people power has always played a role in making the world one we all want it to be. The Green Game Jam has been built as a sandbox for all studios to get players to consider how small actions can make a real difference.
