The PUBG Mobile Lightspeed Beta v0.11 is live in China and includes the MK47 weapon, Tukshai vehicle, rain and a separate snow-covered area in Erangel.

It looks like PUBG Mobile is all set to get a brand new update. If the PUBG Mobile Lightspeed Beta available in China is to be believed, the game will get a new weapon, a new vehicle, new weather in Erangel and Miramar, death cam reply, new animations and snow. The information was posted on Reddit by user, u/AtomR, who said that the MK47 was added to the Chinese Lightspeed Beta of the game, along with the Tukshai vehicle. To recall, both of these are already available on the PC and Xbox versions of the game, with the latter getting the update a few weeks back. Judging by the previous releases, the MK47 will be available on all maps, while the Tukshai will be exclusive to the Sanhok map.

The Redditor also notes that Erangel and Miramar will finally get weather effects. This would most likely include rain. It was added that the update does include snow, but it will not be a separate map altogether. Instead, Erangel will get a separate area that is covered in snow. However, the developers of the game are expected to add a snow map to the game. Data miners have uncovered information that suggests that the location will be based on Europe and feature locations such as a castle, a cosmodrome and more.The final name of the map is not yet known, with reports suggesting that it will be called Dihor Otok.

The user is also directed to a video by YouTuber, Rey LAGARTO who has posted a video showing all of the features in the PUBG Mobile Lightspeed Beta Update. 

It is not yet known if or when all these updates will make their way to the global version of the game, or what the final build version will be called. The global version of the game is currently on 0.9.0, and was released a few weeks ago.
