Our PUBG Mid Autumn Festival Guide explains how to unlock the Hanbok and Tang skins, and contains the start and end dates for the new event.
A new in-game event is coming to PUBG, and it goes by the name of the Mid-Autumn Festival.
For as long as the special event is active, you’ll be able to work towards unlocking a collection of festival-specific cosmetic items, released over a period of several weeks.
In this article, we’ve pulled together all of the official information that’s been released about the event into one place. You’ll find a timetable of the content updates, items available each week, and a snapshot of all the skins right here in one place.
UPDATE – We’ve just dropped the Week 2 rewards and event requirements into the top of this guide so you know what to expect!
Mid-Autumn Festival Week 2 Rewards and Requirements
Here’s a quick screenshot from the game highlighting what’s on offer in Week 2 and what you’ll need to do to unlock the rewards:

Mid-Autumn Festival Skins: How to Unlock
At the time of publishing the first edition of this article, the devs have not explicitly explained how these items unlock. We’ll update our guide as soon as we have more official information.
What we do know right now is the there will be certain “requirements” that you’ll need to meet in order to unlock the rewards from each weekly event.
When each week’s update goes live, you’ll be able to click a create icon in the game lobby to see the full details of the event, as well as the associated rewards.
Note also that you’ll need to claim your rewards by clicking the “Receive” button before the end of each weekly period. If you fail to do so, you’ll miss out on picking up the items you’ve worked on unlocking.
As the game is updated each week, we’ll pop a note in here outlining the current requirements for the new skins that have just entered the rotation.
