A dataminer found all sorts of new items in the code of PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds that currently do not exist in the game. Among them are a Sci-Fi power armor, camo-patterned hot pants, and even an allegedly poisonous apple!
In PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds, you buy crates with cosmetic items using your in-game currency. So far, the items have been quite rudimentary everyday clothes. Most players looked like they had just been thrown from an office into the merciless survival struggle on a deserted Eastern Bloc island.
But apparently, there are all sorts of cool clothes and items in the game’s code that you have never seen in the game before.
PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds meets Mad Max and Fallout
Dataminer and Reddit user DevinWatson dug through the files of PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds and found a number of items that are currently not available in the game. Among them were the following items:
- Post-apocalyptic armors and leather jackets that could come straight out of Mad Max or Fallout
- Punk clothing
- Skins for backpacks and sports bags
- A leather coat with a hood
- Sexy camo hot pants
- A syringe with a mysterious substance
- An apple that was stored under “grenades” and is called “Poison Apple”
- A complete space power armor!
PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds – Datamining costumes just placeholders?
The power armor, in terms of style, does not quite fit into PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds. According to the dataminer, the space armor is likely just a placeholder as it was found in a test folder. However, the other items might well have a future in the game and could possibly come with a new content update.
The syringe and the apple could in particular hint at cool new buffs. If you want to get a look at the new items, we have embedded DevinWatson’s Imgur gallery here. Have fun!
What do you think of the discovered items? Do you find them nice or all ugly and inappropriate for PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds? And do you think they will ever make it into the game? Let us know in the comments!
