Are they a subtle nod to Fortnite or something more?
Playerunknown's Battlegrounds latest map, Sanhok, isn't complete. Each examination current introduces subtle changes inwards the geometry, details, in addition to layout of buildings. But 1 alter institute inwards its latest iteration isn't all that subtle. Yesterday, players started finding small-scale golden chests hidden throughout the jungles of Sanhok.
So far, exclusively a few bring been institute in addition to there's no agency to interact alongside them. Redditor 'godlyfury' appears to endure 1 of the kickoff to bring spied a golden breast tucked into a stone outcropping piece playing alongside their squad. The thread where they shared their findings rapidly exploded every bit players chimed inwards alongside the place of other chests in addition to speculation over what it could mean.
Without whatsoever perceivable agency to opened upwards them, the golden chests seem to endure a subtle wink at PUBG's principal competitor, Fortnite Battle Royale. Those familiar alongside the latter volition know that the map is littered alongside golden chests that, when opened, ofttimes vantage groovy gear. Of course, this makes feel considering Sanhok is a map that noticeably tries to copy Fortnite's formula for overwhelming success. Compared to PUBG's other maps, Sanhok is a measly 4x4 grid jungle—a much tighter infinite that creates much to a greater extent than chaotic action.
So it could simply endure a piffling easter egg, but we'll endure keeping our eyes peeled inwards example it's something more. If you've institute other golden chests or bring your ain theories every bit to what they could be, allow us know inwards the comments.
Thanks, Kotaku.
