The PUBG world is taking a new path with a fresh game called PUBG: Blindspot. This time, the focus moves away from large battle royale maps and long survival matches. Instead, players will step into fast and close 5v5 team battles with a top-down camera view.
This new style changes how players think and play. Rather than only aiming and shooting, the game pushes teams to plan their moves, watch their angles, and work together to control space. It keeps the serious and gritty feel of PUBG but puts it into a smaller and more competitive setting.
PUBG Blindspot Release Date and Time
PUBG: Blindspot will enter Early Access on February 5, 2026, on Steam. Because the launch follows a global schedule, players in some regions can start playing late on February 4.
Here are the main release times across regions:
- Indian Standard Time (IST): 10:30 AM on February 5
- Pacific Time (PT): 9:00 PM on February 4
- Central Time (CT): 11:00 PM on February 4
- Eastern Time (ET): 12:00 AM on February 5
- Greenwich Mean Time (GMT): 5:00 AM on February 5
- Australian Eastern Time (AET): 4:00 PM on February 5
This gives players around the world a chance to jump in almost at the same moment and start learning the new system together.
What Makes PUBG Blindspot Different
Blindspot is built around small team battles instead of massive lobbies. Each match puts two teams of five players against each other in tight maps. The top-down view helps players see more of the battlefield, making smart movement and teamwork more important than quick reflex shots.
Players will need to watch corners, share information with teammates, and plan their attacks carefully. Every round becomes more about tactics than pure survival.
Platform Details
At launch, PUBG: Blindspot will only be available on PC through Steam. There is no official news yet about console versions for PlayStation or Xbox. The developers want to use the Early Access phase to collect player feedback and improve balance before expanding to other platforms.
What Players Can Expect
For long-time PUBG fans, Blindspot offers a new way to enjoy the same universe. For players who like strategy and teamwork, it brings a fresh competitive challenge.
With its early access starting this week, Blindspot is ready to show that the PUBG name can grow beyond the classic battle royale and still deliver exciting and intense gameplay.
