Krafton released its PUBG Mobile replacement Battlegrounds Mobile India (BGMI) for Android recently. While the game has officially only been out for a couple of weeks, the first major update is coming really soon. Krafton has teased several new features and changes coming to BGMI with the 1.5.0 update. So here’s everything you need to know about the July update of BGMI.
Krafton recently shared a video to showcase all the new changes coming to BGMI with Season 20 later this month. The July update includes a new gun, a new Mission Ignition Mode, and a ton of other system and quality-of-life changes.
The MG3 is a light machine gun (LMG) that will replace the M249 in the airdrop supply crates. On the other hand, the M249 will be available as a general drop weapon on all of the maps. The MG3 shoots 7.62 ammo and can hold up to 75 bullets in one magazine. One of its key features is the continuous firepower capability. However, it is important to note that the reload time takes a little longer.
Throw Healing Consumables
Another key change in the update includes the ability to throw healing consumables. It will allow players to throw healing consumables like health packs, bandages, and other items to nearby teammates.
With this update, the developers are changing the ranking system of BGMI. They have essentially added two brand new tiers between the Ace and Conquerer ranks, namely Ace Master and Ace Dominator. The developers have also updated the tier icons and level-up animations.
BGMI New `Mission Ignition Mode
Following the update, a new Mission Ignition Mode will be active on the Erangel Map for a certain period of time. This new game mode will include 6 new high-tech areas in Erangel, namely the Transit Center, Tech Center, Georgopol, Logistics Agency, Sosnovka Security Center, and the Energy Center in BGMI.
Settings and Quality-of-Life Changes
Other than the new gun and the Mission Ignition mode, Krafton has also made several changes in the settings department. For instance, players will now be able to set the sensitivity level for each gun individually. They will also be able to copy and modify the sensitivity of guns and store their preferred settings in the cloud.
BGMI 1.5 July Update Availability
So, these were some of the many new changes that are coming to BGMI this month. The Season 19 event will come to an end on July 13 and the Season 20 update will roll out the same day at 7:30 PM in India, as per the official blog post. So yeah, players can download the latest update from Google Play Store once it goes live.
