Game updates, patch breakdowns and stream announcements
The third leg of the PUBG Global Series 2026 is moving from Seoul to Shanghai, China. Three weeks of competition run August 5–23. Here's the schedule and what's at stake.
PUBG tweaked Rondo's loot distribution in update 42.2. The popular hot drops got thinned out, and several quieter areas got a serious upgrade. Here's where to land if you want to gear up fast.
T1 won Worlds 2025 — their third championship in a row — and the celebration skins are officially in the game. The T1: The Ascended collection dropped with patch 26.14. Here's what you need to know.
Update 42.2 is live on PC (July 15) and consoles (July 23). The new tutorial actually teaches you how to play, Hot Drop is back, Solo FFA Deathmatch arrives July 29, and console players finally get a choice between resolution and framerate.
Garen mains are having a rough week. Patch 26.14 brings nerfs to Garen, Jayce, and Seraphine, buffs to Corki and Nami, and a Blue Buff rework that actually matters. Oh, and Season 3 kicks off July 29.
League of Legends Classic is real. Riot announced a separate game mode that recreates 2009–2013 LoL — original item builds, rune pages you bought with IP, slow towers, and 60 classic champions. No ranked queue, just vibes.
Update 42.2 brings the Just Married Survivor Pass — a wedding-themed cosmetic track with 60 levels, a progressive SLR skin, and a limousine parachute. July's store rotation also brings back some classic skins.
Season 2 is almost over and patch 26.13 has a clear tier list. Caitlyn is still a problem, Smolder is quietly dominating high elo, and top lane is basically a Garen and Darius party. Here's who to play before the reset.
