Capcom recently released a modern remake of Resident Evil 2 on consoles and PC that's been overwhelmingly received as a success, so in an effort to capitalize on the game's popularity PUBG Mobile just launched an update (v0.11.0) that crosses over with the world of RE2. Zombies and bosses from the RE2 universe will spawn on the Erangel map in a new limited event mode titled Zombie: Survive Till Dawn.

The new Zombie: Survive Till Dawn mode in PUBG Mobile is definitely the most significant addition in the recent v0.11.0 update, but that doesn't mean there aren't a few other features worth talking about. Moonlight has been added to the Vikendi map, and there are two new treasure events available for earning RE2 outfits as well as rare player finishes. You can also expect to find the main menu theme and music from RE2, which adds to the spooky atmosphere of this update.

For the full changelog, please read below.

- Added Zombie: Survive Till Dawn, a new event mode that is here for a limited time only. Fight to survive as usual on Erangel, but zombies and bosses from Resident Evil 2 will also spawn on the map! Kill them to get resources and items.

Other Improvements

- Some houses in Vikendi have been redesigned.

- SMG and Assault Rifles War Modes now start with double the ammo.

- Past results are now kept up to 1 month. Older data will be cleared.

- Fixed terrain display bugs for budget devices.

As far as gameplay is concerned, each Zombie: Survive Till Dawn match will unfold over the span of three in-game days and two nights, though each match still only lasts the standard thirty minutes. This shifting day and night cycle brings along a bunch of RE2 zombies and bosses that can be very dangerous at night but docile by day, which inevitably complicates things as players try to go about their regular duties.

PUBG Mobile may at first seem like an odd match for the Resident Evil franchise, but once you jump into the new Zombie: Survive Till Dawn mode you'll completely forget about the strangeness of the limited crossover and enjoy yourself some good old-fashion zombie shooting action.
