PUBG MOBILE V4.6 Brings Midnight Hunters & S32

PUBG MOBILE has officially rolled out Version 4.6, bringing a supernatural takeover to the battleground with the new Midnight Hunters themed mode.

Available from September 8, 2026, Version 4.6 centers around a battle between vampire hunters and supernatural enemies, introducing new PvE encounters, special equipment, missions and even the ability for eliminated players to return as vampires.

But Midnight Hunters is only one part of the update.

Version 4.6 also brings Season 32, new Classic Mode missions, weapon improvements, a new Inflatable Boat, Metro Royale Chapter 34, Halloween-themed World of Wonder content and new activities in Home Mode.

Here's what's new in PUBG MOBILE Version 4.6.

Midnight Hunters Takes Over PUBG MOBILE

The biggest addition in Version 4.6 is Midnight Hunters, a new themed mode built around vampires and the Vampire Hunter Guild.

Familiar locations are transformed into darker supernatural combat zones filled with additional enemies, objectives and supplies.

Instead of only worrying about enemy squads, players can encounter dangerous PvE enemies while exploring these areas.

Three main vampire enemy types appear throughout the mode:

  • Bloodwalkers – aggressive melee-focused enemies
  • Nightbats – ranged enemies that attack using sonic blasts
  • Vampire Elder – a stronger enemy capable of supporting nearby vampires

Elite versions can also appear with additional protection and stronger abilities, making some locations considerably more dangerous to explore.

Meet the Nightkeeper

Vampire Hunter Guild outposts can be found throughout Midnight Hunters, where players may encounter a mysterious character known as the Nightkeeper.

Players can interact with these locations to obtain supplies and participate in additional activities.

Later in a match, the Nightkeeper can also be challenged directly for valuable rewards.

This gives squads another optional objective to pursue alongside fighting enemy players and surviving the shrinking play zone.

Golden Bats and Scream Crates

Version 4.6 also adds smaller exploration challenges throughout Midnight Hunters.

Players can discover Golden Bat Statues that reveal Golden Bats when activated.

The Golden Bat will attempt to escape, giving players a limited opportunity to defeat it and claim its bounty rewards.

Scream Crates offer another risk-and-reward activity.

Instead of simply opening the crate, players need to complete a challenge to access the supplies inside. Failing can trigger an alarm that exposes the player's position, potentially attracting nearby opponents.

Guild Missions Bring More PvE Action

Midnight Hunters also introduces Guild Missions that become available during matches.

These missions can send players into encounters involving supernatural enemies and other objectives.

Completing them provides additional rewards, giving squads another reason to explore the themed locations instead of concentrating entirely on PvP combat.

It also makes Midnight Hunters feel different from a standard battle royale match with a temporary visual theme.

Eliminated Players Can Return as Vampires

One of the most unusual mechanics introduced in Version 4.6 is Bloodline Awakening.

Under the mode's conditions, eliminated players can sacrifice their remaining recall opportunity and return to the battlefield as a vampire.

Instead of returning as a normal player, they join the vampire faction with enhanced attributes and a completely different set of abilities.

Vampires have four major abilities:

  • Claw Attack – a multi-stage melee attack
  • Absorb – restores health using available supplies
  • Blood Sense – detects and marks nearby human players
  • Blood Amberfication – provides a temporary high-speed state with damage immunity

The system effectively gives some eliminated players a second life while completely changing their objective and playstyle.

Rather than returning to their original squad, they become another threat hunting the remaining human players.

Twilight Bat Wings Introduce Aerial Movement

Version 4.6 introduces several pieces of special equipment designed around the Midnight Hunters theme.

One of the most distinctive is Twilight Bat Wings.

Using the item allows players to transform into an energy bat and travel through the air.

The transformation offers abilities for movement, scouting and combat, including rapid dashes and sonar for detecting nearby enemies.

Players can also latch onto teammates while transformed.

Because the form relies on limited energy, it cannot be used indefinitely, forcing players to choose when aerial movement will provide the greatest advantage.

Silvermoon Chain Works as a Weapon and Movement Tool

The Silvermoon Chain combines offensive, defensive and traversal abilities.

Players can use the chain to attack enemies or attach it to structures to quickly pull themselves toward another position.

That makes it useful for reaching higher ground, repositioning during fights or escaping dangerous situations.

The chain can also provide defensive protection against incoming attacks.

With both combat and movement applications, it is one of the more versatile special items introduced in Midnight Hunters.

Blood Crystal Barriers Add New Building Defense

Players can also obtain Blood Crystal Barriers.

These barriers can be placed across openings such as windows, temporarily preventing bullets and thrown weapons from passing through.

They have limited durability and duration, so they cannot permanently seal a building.

However, using one at the right moment can make it harder for opponents to attack through common entry points or surprise a squad holding a building.

New Healing and Support Items

Midnight Hunters also expands the available recovery tools.

New themed items include the Hunter Bandage, Scarlet Tonic and Blood Pact.

The Blood Pact is particularly interesting for squads because it creates a link between teammates, allowing one player to sacrifice some of their own health to support another.

These additions give teams more recovery options during the longer PvP and PvE encounters found throughout Midnight Hunters.

Classic Mode Gets New Missions

Version 4.6 also introduces changes outside the themed mode.

On Erangel, players can encounter new in-match missions while playing Classic Mode.

These provide additional objectives involving supplies and other activities, creating more opportunities to earn resources during a match.

The Supply Shop has also been improved with a refreshed interface, better filtering and a wider selection of items.

These are smaller changes compared with Midnight Hunters, but they directly affect the standard PUBG MOBILE experience.

ACE32 and 7.62mm Weapons Receive Improvements

Several weapons receive firing stability adjustments in Version 4.6.

The ACE32 is among the weapons affected, alongside several popular 7.62mm firearms:

  • AKM
  • M762
  • Honey Badger
  • Mk47
  • Groza

The changes are intended to improve firing stability, potentially making these weapons more comfortable and consistent to use.

Players who regularly rely on 7.62mm assault rifles should pay attention to how the weapons feel after updating to Version 4.6.

A New Inflatable Boat Comes to Erangel

Water travel also gets a new option with the introduction of the Inflatable Boat.

Unlike a conventional vehicle, the boat can be carried and deployed when needed.

It supports up to four players, making it suitable for full squads.

Its movement speed also increases depending on how many players are rowing, encouraging teammates to work together when crossing larger stretches of water.

New Channel Buoys around the waters near Sosnovka Military Base provide temporary protection for players caught in exposed water areas.

Parachuting Gets an Auto-Glide Feature

Version 4.6 also introduces a small quality-of-life improvement for parachuting.

Players can push the joystick upward to activate auto-glide, making long-distance parachuting easier without requiring the same movement input to be continuously held.

It is a relatively small change, but one that regular players may appreciate during repeated drops.

Season 32 Begins September 12

Version 4.6 also introduces the next Ranked season.

PUBG MOBILE Season 32 begins September 12, 2026, bringing refreshed tier rewards and progression.

The Promotion Match experience has also been improved.

After successfully completing a promotion, players can now receive a dedicated results sequence highlighting statistics from their Ranked journey.

The Path of Glory also provides additional progression opportunities for players climbing through the higher Ace ranks.

For competitive players, Season 32 gives Version 4.6 a fresh Ranked grind alongside the new themed content.

Ranked Arena Returns in October

Arena Mode also receives another competitive season during Version 4.6.

The Ranked Arena season runs from October 1 to October 29 across four maps:

  • Team Deathmatch – Warehouse
  • Team Deathmatch – Hangar
  • Assault – The Ruins
  • Domination – Town

Players can progress through Ranked Arena tiers and earn rewards during the season.

The top 1,000 players in each region will also receive a limited Title when the season ends.

Metro Royale Chapter 34 Continues the Vampire Theme

Metro Royale enters Chapter 34 during Version 4.6 and incorporates several elements from Midnight Hunters.

Mutated vampire bases can appear at Arctic Base, introducing supernatural enemies guarding valuable resources.

Scream Crates and Golden Bat Statues also appear within Metro Royale, bringing some of the themed mode's PvE encounters into a different part of PUBG MOBILE.

This allows players who spend more time in Metro Royale to experience parts of the Version 4.6 vampire theme without relying entirely on Midnight Hunters.

World of Wonder Gets a Halloweeks Update

World of Wonder is also receiving Halloween-inspired content during Version 4.6.

Brainrot gameplay gets a Halloweeks makeover featuring new collectible characters, themed content and event currency.

A limited-time Ghost Ship event adds another unusual element.

Players can encounter the flying ship, visit its themed shop and interact with ghost cannonballs capable of transforming Brainrot mutants into different variants.

Creators also receive additional tools and resources for building custom World of Wonder experiences.

Home Mode Introduces Feast of Shadows

Home Mode joins the darker Version 4.6 atmosphere with Feast of Shadows, beginning September 13.

The event divides players into seekers and specters.

Seekers attempt to find hidden specters and earn search points, while specters hide and try to frighten their opponents to earn fright points.

Accumulated points can then be exchanged for event rewards.

This gives Home Mode its own activity tied to the supernatural atmosphere of Version 4.6.

Ocean Odyssey Returns September 30

Version 4.6 will also bring back Ocean Odyssey.

The popular ocean-themed experience returns on September 30 and will be available on Ranked Erangel for a limited period.

Its return gives players another themed gameplay option while Version 4.6 is active, alongside Midnight Hunters.

PUBG MOBILE Version 4.6 Key Dates

Here are the main Version 4.6 dates players should know:

  • September 8: Version 4.6 begins rolling out
  • September 8: Midnight Hunters arrives
  • September 12: Season 32 begins
  • September 13: Feast of Shadows begins
  • September 18: Bloodline Awakening availability begins
  • September 30: Ocean Odyssey returns
  • October 1: Ranked Arena season begins
  • October 16: Bloodline Awakening moves into continuous availability
  • October 29: Ranked Arena season ends
  • November 10: Main Version 4.6 content period concludes

Availability may differ slightly depending on server region and timezone.

Why Version 4.6 Is More Than a Vampire Event

Many players may initially see Version 4.6 as PUBG MOBILE's Halloween-style update, but the changes extend beyond Midnight Hunters.

The themed mode itself introduces new enemies, missions, vampire transformations and equipment that significantly change how individual matches can play out.

At the same time, Classic Mode receives new missions and gameplay improvements, 7.62mm weapons receive adjustments, Season 32 refreshes Ranked progression, and Metro Royale, World of Wonder and Home Mode all receive new content.

That makes Version 4.6 a broader seasonal update rather than simply a temporary vampire event.

Conclusion

PUBG MOBILE Version 4.6 is now rolling out with Midnight Hunters at the center of the update, bringing vampires, hunters, PvE enemies, Guild Missions and a collection of supernatural equipment to the battleground.

The update also introduces meaningful changes outside Midnight Hunters.

Season 32 begins September 12, Classic Mode receives new missions and gameplay improvements, several 7.62mm weapons receive firing stability adjustments, and the new Inflatable Boat adds another option for squad travel.

Metro Royale Chapter 34 continues the vampire theme, while World of Wonder and Home Mode receive their own seasonal activities. Ocean Odyssey will also make its return later during Version 4.6.

With new gameplay systems spread across several of PUBG MOBILE's major modes, Version 4.6 offers much more than a visual Halloween takeover.
