PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds (PUBG) for PC is about to start testing their new map which is currently being called Codename: Savage. We've had a previous look at the map before and the 4 km x 4 km, including a short clip from their GDC presentation, but now it looks like it's almost ready for players to enjoy first hand.

ICYMI at my @Official_GDC talk, here's an early WIP preview of our 4x4km map, coming soon to the new @PUBATTLEGROUNDS Experimental Test Servers!#ThisIsBattleRoyale pic.twitter.com/JGRv57A7ST

Here's what the team over at PUBG Corp had to say about the upcoming map, including when (and how) to sign up for testing it out yourself:

"If you’ve been keeping up with all things PUBG, you may have already seen some screenshots and even a short clip from our upcoming 4x4 map. We promised you that you would get a chance to try the new map very early on and we are delivering on that promise. We haven’t released content so early in its development since our alpha testing stage. We’re doing this because we want to start getting your feedback as soon as possible and drive the development in the right direction.

So, how is it going to work?

At first, we are going to do a more limited test for Codename: Savage to make sure that nothing is too broken. Again, it’s a super early build, we hope you understand. The next test will be bigger!

The first testing window will open from the 2nd of April, 7pm PDT until the 5th of April, 4am PDT."

As far as when to sign up, that goes live on Monday and we'll update you the moment it does! You can also keep an eye on the PUBG Twitter account on that day to ensure you get a key before the spots fill up.
