PUBG has been hinting that the Panzerfaust will be added to the game ever since the start of Season 6 in the trailer of Karakin and now it is actually coming in the update 6.3 with other weapon balances. Let's check it out below.

New Weapon: Panzerfaust

The most important part of this update is the addition of the Panzerfaust to Karakin. The Panzerfaust will spawn around the map and always appear in airdrops. It's a one-time use weapon that has an effective range of up to 150 meters. The weapon can launch an explosive warhead that will explode on impact and deal damage to players in a 6 meters radius. The explosion can deal damage to players through thin walls and objects. It can also be used to destroy breach points on Karakin just like the Sticky Bomb.

A few important things you need to know about the Panzerfaust:

  • After the warhead is launched the weapon will be discarded and can't be used again.
  • The Panzerfaust will create a backblast 3 meters behind the weapon when fires so make sure none of your teammates is behind you.
  • The projectile of the Panzerfaust is pretty fast, but players from far away can still dodge it or even explode it mid-air with a bullet.
  • The Panzerfaust will take up a Primary Weapon slot.

Tommy Gun

The infamous Tommy Gun is one of the oldest weapons in PUBG, but no one wants to use it because it has everything but a scope. In this update, the gun now can be equipped with a Red Dot or a Holo. The recoil and fire rate of the weapon are also improved slightly.
