Erangel is about to get a web-swinging new update as PUBG MOBILE welcomes Spider-Man into the battle royale game. In celebration of Spider-Man: No Way Home, the hit survival shooter is partnering up with Sony Pictures for the Version 1.8 update in mid-January, bringing lots of exclusive in-game goodies to players next month.

PUBG MOBILE fans will not only score collaboration graffiti simply by completing missions in the game, but they'll also get to experience the 1.8 update in a brand new way when our friendly neighborhood wallcrawler swings into UK cinemas on December 15th.

“Spider-Man is one of the most beloved characters both in the Super Hero world, and more widely in popular culture," says Vincent Wang, Head of PUBG MOBILE Publishing, Tencent Games. "The opportunity to team up with Spider-Man: No Way Home means that we can bring the excitement and anticipation of the film and character to PUBG MOBILE, something we’re certain our players, and Spider-Man fans, are going to love.”

“This exciting collaboration will allow fans around the world to expand their engagement with their friendly neighbourhood Spider-Man through PUGB MOBILE’s state-of-the-art gaming experience – all while on the go with their mobile phone,” says Jeffrey Godsick, EVP of Global Partnerships and Brand Management and Head of Location Based Entertainment at Sony Pictures Entertainment.

Details about the PUBG MOBILE x Spider-Man: No Way Home promotional partnership are pretty few at the moment, but more info will be revealed when Version 1.8 launches in mid-January. For now, the Arcane collab (embedded above) is currently underway, and you can have a go at the game as PUBG MOBILE is available to download on the iOS App Store and on the Google Play Store for Android devices. It's a free-to-play game with in-app purchases.
