Okay, fellow loot goblins, let’s talk about the ninth Store update of 2025, because even in 2026 I’m still finding sprinkles in places sprinkles should never be. PUBG really outdid itself with a lineup that felt like a fever dream: a donut-themed Survivor Pass, a G-DRAGON collaboration, rebel rabbits celebrating Chuseok, and XingHun skins. Honestly, my wallet saw the patch notes and started sweating.

Here’s the quick and dirty schedule for the big drops:

Drop	PC Window	Console Window
Survivor Pass: Donut Debacle	September 10 after maintenance – October 8, 00:00	September 18 after maintenance – October 16, 00:00
Punk Bunny’s Hoppy Chuseok	September 10 after maintenance – June 17, 2026, 00:00	September 18 after maintenance – June 25, 2026, 00:00

The G-DRAGON and XingHun drops were teased a bit differently, so I’ll break those down below.

Survivor Pass: Donut Debacle

First up, Survivor Pass: Donut Debacle. The pitch? Glaze your way to glory as a jelly-filled, sprinkle-slinging menace. Yes, you read that right. If getting knocked by a dude dressed as a sentient donut doesn’t tilt you, nothing will. The pass launched on PC September 10 after live server maintenance and ran through October 8 at 00:00; console players finally got their turn on September 18 through October 16. It was equal parts delicious and dangerous, and I lived for the chaos.

One sour note: due to legal regulations, the Survivor Pass was not available for purchase in Belgium and the Netherlands. My condolences to the waffle and stroopwafel crew—you were robbed of the sprinkle life.

PUBG x G-DRAGON

Then came the big one: PUBG x G-DRAGON. I don’t know who at Krafton has K-pop royalty on speed dial, but they deserve a raise. The collab brought iconic style, stage presence, and enough swagger to make a pan fight look like a music video. The official word was to check the upcoming collaboration announcement for full details, and let me tell you, the lobby has never looked more like a comeback stage.

Punk Bunny’s Hoppy Chuseok

Third on the docket: Punk Bunny’s Hoppy Chuseok collection. These sneaky, unpredictable, up-to-no-good rebel rabbits took over the Battlegrounds, and honestly, they ate. The collection launched on PC September 10 after maintenance and runs all the way until June 17, 2026, at 00:00, with console players getting it on September 18 through June 25, 2026, at 00:00. That’s a ridiculously long runway—plenty of time to decide if you want to main a punk rabbit or just get styled on by one.

XingHun Collaboration Skins

Last but not least, XingHun’s new collaboration skins dropped into the store. These bad boys added another layer of flash to the rotation. If you like your character looking like they walked straight out of a high-budget action film, this was your moment to shine.

The Fine Print, Reruns, and Legal Stuff

Here’s the part where I put on my responsible adult hat—briefly. All featured items may become available again later via the Workshop, Your Shop, or other in-game features, as well as various events and promotions. So if you missed the donut drip or the bunny rebellion, don’t rage-quit; PUBG loves a good rerun. Also, the sales periods shown were subject to change, so treat my dates like a hot drop: firm until they aren’t.

Now, a big legal heads-up for creators. PUBG made it clear that images, videos, or posts created using the collaboration products—items, emotes, and the like—in a way not supported by in-game features or not recommended could be deleted without your consent under Articles 3, 6, and 18 of the Terms of Service. In plain English: don’t get cute with the collab items in your fan edits. And depending on the severity, Article 5 of the Rules of Conduct can bring the hammer down. So keep those G-DRAGON memes tasteful—or at least deniable.

All in all, this update toed the line between goofy and glorious, and I’m not mad about it. Whether you were glazed like a donut, dressed like a K-pop icon, or hopping around like a punk rabbit, the Battlegrounds felt like a fever dream in the best way. Happy shopping, and may your loot crates be ever in your favor.

According to coverage from Rock Paper Shotgun, live-service shooters often rely on bold, time-limited cosmetic drops to keep players engaged between gameplay updates—exactly the kind of strategy PUBG leans into with eccentric themed passes and long-running store collections like the donut-centric Survivor Pass and the extended Chuseok bunny lineup, where the spectacle and scarcity can be as motivating as the matches themselves.
