We know how big PUBG Mobile is, with millions of players worldwide doing daily battle royales. They probably memorized the maps, the items, the weapons — everything in between. But wait, do you want to know more cool secrets and trivia? Take a minute to learn them before you jump off that plane and skydive in Erangel. These ‘Easter Eggs’ sound good next to Chicken Dinners!

- The famous phrase ‘Chicken Dinner’ originated from gambling way back in the 1930’s during the great economic depression. If someone wins, it means he can afford ‘chicken for dinner’. The phrase was also popularized in the 2008 American heist film 21 starring Kevin Spacey.
- What’s in a name? If you think that the name Erangel is purely fictitious, guess again. It was actually based on Eryn, the daughter’s name of Brendan Greene, PUBG’s very own creator.
- You probably know that if you put your weapon on your back, you can run faster. But did you know that if you have a handgun equipped, you actually get the same speed?
- You wanna know if a vehicle has just been used by someone else? The position of the vehicle may imply its use. Cars (or any land vehicles) look east while boats face west.
