PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds is poised to kick off its new season next week, and ahead of Season 13's release, Krafton shared the patch notes to show off everything that's changing. Within those notes are details about changes coming to the Sanhock and Taego maps, the latter being the map introduced last season that's sticking around again for Season 13. The update in question will first arrive on the PC platform on August 4th before it comes to consoles, too, on August 12th.

Between the two maps being altered, Taego receives the bulk of the changes in the Season 13 update which makes sense given how it's the newest map to be released. The PUBG developers said the changes affecting Taego are responses to feedback from the community that led to a number of decisions being made.

Below is everything that's happening to Taego and Sanhok when the game's next update releases:
