It feels like just yesterday I was making my very first jump into Erangel, heart racing as I looked for that elusive first frying pan. Now, as PUBG: Battlegrounds reaches its ninth anniversary, I am incredibly proud to celebrate this milestone with the millions of players who have kept dropping into the Battlegrounds for nearly a decade. If you have been away for a while or are looking for the right moment to start your journey, I can confidently say: now is the best time to play.
A Celebration Built for You: Why You Can’t Miss This Loot
To thank our community, I wanted to ensure that PUBG: Battlegrounds’ 9th Anniversary felt rewarding from the very second you log in. That’s why I’m so excited about the Event Pass: All Day Party. Unlike the standard passes you might be used to, this one is my personal gift to you—it’s completely free and packed with limited-time rewards.
Whether you’re playing on Xbox Series X|S or jumping in via Xbox Game Pass, the path to these rewards is simple. I know we all have busy schedules, so I’ve kept the missions incredibly straightforward: all you have to do is log into the lobby daily.
The celebration on console kicks off on March 19, right after the live server maintenance, and runs until April 1 at 2:00 AM UTC. For those of you tracking the clock in the U.S., that’s March 31 at 7:00 PM PT / 10:00 PM ET. By simply showing up, you’ll unlock a massive haul of gear, including the Victory Dance 170 and a generous stack of Supply Loot Caches. But the real stars of the show for me are the Aston Martin Loot Caches and fragments. Getting your hands on these premium items just for checking in is a huge win, and I can’t wait to see everyone flaunting their new gear in the pre-game lobby.
Luxury Meets Survival: Aston Martin and AllDay Project
The celebration also marks a bold evolution in the game’s atmosphere through our partnership with the K-pop group AllDay Project. Their track “I Don’t Bargain” perfectly captures the high-stakes energy of a final circle, blending global music culture with our signature battle royale experience. Alongside this fresh beat, I’m thrilled to see the return of the iconic Aston Martin collaboration. Navigating the rugged terrain of the Battlegrounds in the pinnacle of automotive luxury adds a layer of prestige that is truly unique to this 9th-anniversary milestone. It is not just about getting to the next circle; it is about doing it with unparalleled style.
Exclusive Perks for Xbox Game Pass Members
For my fellow Xbox Game Pass members, I’ve lined up an extra tactical advantage. Starting March 25, you can claim the 2026 Xbox Game Pass Exclusive Survivor Pack #1. This exclusive pack is designed to jumpstart your anniversary collection and includes a Hunter’s Chest, Key, and Contraband Coupons. This offer is available until May 23, so make sure to grab your pack and start opening those crates while the celebration is in full swing.
Join the Legacy
Beyond these highlights, I have packed the month with a wide array of additional festivities—from high-energy Hot Time events to special check-in rewards—ensuring there is something new to experience every single day. There has truly never been a better time to upgrade your inventory and celebrate nearly a decade of survival together. Jump into PUBG: Battlegrounds on Xbox Series X|S today, claim your rewards, and let’s make year nine the best one yet.
